Without wishing to stray too far off topic, This is exactly the sort of thing happening at the engineering (part time) job I'm (And @adzy) are in. We can both see the direction of travel.......He is no farmer. He’s corporate. It’s the same old same old corporate system. I used to work as an engineer. Over my 20 year career I saw the same kind of attitude as pervades corporate culture now. When I started we were paid overtime. By the time I finished we were expected to finish “the job” in however many hours it took on a fixed salary and they always underestimated the time required, Same old same old that every working man is experiencing. Zero hours contracts, travelling miles. Cut throat corporatism. Don’t know what the answer is, just glad I’m over 50.
As for beet, my haulier mentioned that he'll need an auto tail gate to tip at bury in 2 yrs. New rules. I've said a number of times now not to rush out and buy something as will it be there in 2 yrs
