Cost of contract sheep work

[CopperBeech]

Dosed 1200 lambs today; so chuffed to bits I’ve made or perhaps saved £600, based on above rates. Plus the sweat spent saved me another £50 in gym fees…. Suppose I could of earnt £250 driving a truck… but then that’s dull and means negotiating the idiots on the road and I’d of spent £20 on food to get fat on to kill the boredom. On reflection I’ll stick with the shepherding

Surely you’d be better not doing anything because you could potentially get paid more doing something else

£1/hd to dose?

I’m going to quit shearing and become a full time doser!

Think you might find you end up a full time dosser instead
