I am a row crop consultant. There are usually about 6 weeks every summer that are really demanding; heading out 5-5:30am depending on distance from home I’ll be working, usually home by 8:30pm or so, 6 days a week, sometimes 7. The rest of the season is not so bad 50-60 hrs most weeks.
so, yeah, I eat breakfast on the way to the field each day, keep a Yeti full of water, Gatorade, Diet Mt.Dew, sandwich meat and mayo, supplies in the back seat, files in the passenger seat.
Not a lot of folks chomping at the bit to get into the line of work. Sun, heat, sweat, dust, mud, snakes, long hours, physically demanding.
