Expectations & Realism - Hard graft. Real money. 

  • It's Spring, it's early, it's real farm work. Often in the cold and dark. Days run 10–12 hours.
  • It's Dirty. Poo, pee, effluent, chemical smells — this is dairy farming, and it's part of the job every single day.
  • It's Hard: on your feet all day, in all weather, 
  • The first 2–3 weeks are the hardest.
    •  your body is building strength and stamina it doesn't have yet. 
    • expect to be tired — that's normal, not a sign you're failing.

Why people hate it …
