Silage 2014

    Hi all,
    Just looking for some advice, I'm working full time but would love to take time off during the summer and work with a silage contractor. I grew up farming but when I started my present job I drifted away from it. (Hope to return one day) anyway I have some experience with machinery but none with some of the huge ones on the road these days. I'm just wondering with limited experience am I wasting my time? I'm 28 reliable, trustworthy and well able for long hours/ hard work, I can't help but think I'd be laughed at if I approached someone looking for a position? Thanks in advance!

    There's a couple of guys around here who work full time but who fall in with contracting crews a couple of evenings a week. They aren't doing it for the huge wages. I think they get a kick out of it and the contractor gets to give an evening off to guys who have been working long hours for a sustained period. Might be an easier option for you to commit to. Less pressure on you as well. You'd be a welcome sight to the other lads on the crew and they'd probably cut you a bit more slack than someone in full time.
