I am a dairy farmer in northern vermont. Went to school for GIS (geographic information systems) got a masters degree, worked in the field and ran into a couple of problems. Can't stand office politics, and did not want to be part of something that acts like BIG brother is watching you (GIS is a relational database used in many areas of public service). So i went to work on my in-laws farm. I take care of equipment and work on the cropping (1500 acres of tillable soil). When i have time, which isn't often with a wife and 5 kids, i like working on the Pws because they are fixable with regular tools and common sense no computers.
