/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>1532370

Usually 8 hours but I farm cash crops so during the busy times(tillage, planting, harvest) I typically only get a couple hours of sleep a night

Here's a typical day during harvest
4:00am wake up, coffe, breakfast etc
5:00am take wagons loaded the night before to the elevator
8:00am(depending on elevator wait time) get back from elevator and Do daily greasing & general inspection on combine
9:00am start harvesting field
12:00pm take freshly filled wagons to elevator and possibly grab a quick lunch
2:00pm start harvesting again
5:00pm again back to the elevator with wagons
8:00pm harvesting again
11:00pm shut down combine & clean off some of the built up residue from the crop then cover up wagons for the night
12:00am arrive home, eat, shower, unwind
2:00am sleep

Of course there's always days where I have to fix something on the combine or move to another field which can take up half the day. Those are days I often get no sleep at all. If there's rain or I'm forced to wait for a part I'll usually get a couple days to catch up on sleep or more likely do maintenance on the combine.
