Your daily routine?

[SeaRex]

I work on projects, mostly. 3D modeling, drawing, maquette sculpture, etc. Other than that, I'll hang out with friends and play video games. College shit.

Except on Tuesdays and Thursdays, when I'm in school from 8AM to 10PM. Those days... I'm... in school.

And I also work as a server at Cracker Barrel (irony) a couple days a week.

[MA]

you lazy gits!

i first started (officially) work 2 weeks after i left school, i was still doing my GCSE's when i started. ive moved to a different dairy farm in the south of England since then, which has less hours and gives me more free time, on the old dairy farm i used to work at i would have to do this every single day;

04:00am = wake up, wash face, brush teeth.
04:30am = start to cycle 4 miles to farm where i work.
05:00am = reach farm, start milking 250 lactating holstein cattle through milking parlour.
08:30am = finish milking all cattle, wash shit out of parlour using big hose.
09:00am = finish washing parlour, start feeding calves their milk (which involves carrying a 30 litre bucket of milk in each hand, and carrying them to calf pens, over slippy shit, thus the bad back).
10:00am = finish feeding calves milk, start feeding older calves feed (which, to my extreme annoyance and my backs woe, involves carrying 25 kilo bags of calf pellets over to pens, one over shoulder, other under arm).
11:00am = have half hour breakfast and cup of coffee.
11:30am = finish breakfast, start scraping shit out of cow cubicles with scraper tractor.
12:00pm = bed cattle with straw, by hand and pitch fork, from 1/2 ton 'small' straw bales (you dont need to weight lift to get strong in this bloody job).
12:30pm = finish bedding, check served (pregnant) cattle for any calving. if so, pull calf out by hand or using ropes and ratchet, make sure you get calf breathing by unblocking all its airways once its out, otherwise it will die. if no calves, do some forklift jobs (moving bales, etc).
01:00pm = dinner at last!!
02:00pm = end dinner, fetch in all 250 lactating cattle from all fields.
03:00pm = set up parlour and milk tanks ready for afternoon milk.
04:00pm = start milking (again).
07:30pm = finish milking, start washing out shit (someone else feeds calves for me in the afternoon whilst i milk).
08:00pm = finish work (if no emergencies like a calving cow or escaped cattle), prepare for an exhillerating 4 mile 30 minute cycle home (takes the fuckin' piss).
08:30pm = get home at soddin' last. cook me own tea (by which point i am severely pissed off).
09:00pm = very depressed by this point, watching telly and eating my tea realising i have no home life. struggling to keep eyes open, literally.
10:00pm = go to bed.

And to top it all off, i only get every other weekend off, so thats 4 days off a month. all for shit pay and a festering temper. But farming is all ive ever known, and i left school with shit grades, anyone thats worked for a farm boss will know what i mean.

SO DONT MOAN ABOUT YOUR JOBS...YEH SLACKERS!

[metroixer]

This is going to probably sound really retarded but...

If you had such crap grades in school (I'm guessing by school you mean 'college'), why don't you retake it? Surely you'll do better and end up getting a job you enjoy.

no, fair question. and this is gonna sound retarded too, but i love the job itself. and you live on the farm in a house in the countryside, away from the city, which may or may not appeal to some people. i may moan, but i love it really. and dairy farming is getting less and less in britain, soon we'll be getting milk and beef from France! or worse...Germany!! the reality being that if food has to be imported, your not guarenteed whats gone in it, and you can kiss goodbye to traditional british beef. so if i leave the industry, its another farm stuck for business.

[Hobo]

thanks for that less than useless remark. before being rude, why dont you read that question back to yourself and have a good, long think.

Why don't you read your laborious timetable and think 'Why don't i get a job that's not shit'

[mudling]

Well I wake up at about 6:00- 6:30, will be 5:30 if I start going to the gym again, then I get ready for school, and walk down to the bus at 7:15
I'm at school at 8:00 ish (Across the Harbour bridge, past the CBD, quite a veiw)
Then I start school at 8:30 and have tutor till 8:45
Have lunch at 12:35, till 1:10 on all days except fridays, in which we have shortened periods for co-coricular, then finnish school at 3:04, get home around 3:45 - 4:00, if I decide to work (At Macas) that will be from 5:00 or 6:00 to 9:00 or 10:00, if not, I use the internet for an hour, then do my homework, then chill for a bit and/ or use msn or phone and talk to freinds.
That's of I don't do sport, which goes from the end of school till 5:00 (I do basketball now, when I did rowing I had to stay at the shed) and I get home at 5:45 to 6:00.
I go to sleep at about 10-11:00, sometimes 12:00.
And that's my daily routine during the week.

dairy farming is getting less and less in britain, soon we'll be getting milk and beef from France! or worse...Germany!! the reality being that if food has to be imported, your not guarenteed whats gone in it, and you can kiss goodbye to traditional british beef.

Why are you less likely to know what ‘goes in’ your beef if it comes from a different EU country? The real incentive to eat locally produced food is to reduce food miles, but then New Zealand dairy farming is so energy efficiency it still has a lower carbon footprint if it’s shipped to the U.K. than local dairy does.

But then if you’re drinking the milk of a different species after infancy, sustainable food production clearly isn’t your primary concern.

Sorry to take off like that.

im not quite sure what you meant in the last bit, about drinking milk from a different species after infancy, but for the first bit i meant if we become dependant on other countries for something quite important, we are no longer self sufficient in that sector of the farming industry, which will also mean plenty of lost jobs (no need to have dairy farms in England if we import cheap milk from...where ever). which i know isnt very important unless we're gonna start a war with anyone in the EU soon (which we are obviously not), but it does still mean we're not guarenteed ('whats gone in it' was a bad way for me to put it) the same handling precautions and livestock laws (not to mention the 5 'freedoms' for farm animals that anyone with a concsience will want to see done. if i remember rightly; freedom from pain, freedom from stress, freedom to space, freedom to eat and drink whenever, and freedom to shelter. there is more but less important) as we have in Britain.

plus DEFRA would blow their top if they didnt have total control of all farming issue's in the UK, already strained under the pressure of the recent 'foot & mouth' out break (AGAIN!) thanks to the bloody government (who were also responsible for the 'mad cow' disease out break a few years ago, because they weren't cooking the bone meal at a high enough temperature to kill all bugs, and the bone meal was then fed to cattle all over the country...i mean what a stupid mistake! there the british government for christ sake! and yet they didnt even cook cattle feed at the right temp!!), and our cattle movement restrictions have only just been lifted, to find that a government lab is pissing about with the 'foot & mouth' virus AGAIN, and nearly let it escape!! AGAIN!!! that would of been the second 'foot & mouth' out break this year! if it had of escaped. the farming industry is not well in Britain, and it dont help that now-a-days every single part of England is owned to someone, but New Zealand has area's where its owned to noone!!

sorry to chew your ear off.

that kastere post made me laugh so much

oh and the troll in Hobo never went away in the first place.

He just forgot to get it out from under his bridge to snack on innocent N00...goats

[Statikk HDM]

SO DONT MOAN ABOUT YOUR JOBS...YEH SLACKERS!

I'll try to keep that in mind a year from now when I'm pulling 24 hour plus cordon shifts and convoy shit/air hammer shit in Afghanistan.

[OANST]

That just sounds like poor career goals to me.

[scrab queen]

I usually hallucinate most of the day.

Weekdays:
Get up
Break the record for getting dressed
fall asleep on couch untill bus comes
Cram into a poorly cusioned seat where my shoes are melting and my nose has fallen off
Rush across the whole school with a 50pound bag
Sleep in math class
Get terrorized in english
Stare into space in art class
Draw something/tattoo the ninthgraders with obcenities in an alien language at lunch
Party/talk/learn stuff/(possibly)blow stuff up in science
Rock out in band
Cram into that bus again
get home
Grab a pop tart
pass out on the floor
(and if I didn't sleep into the next day)
internet/snacks
pass out again

Weekends:
Sleep untill the afternoon (if I didn't sleep through to the next day)
eat
videogames
more sleep

Mine is kind of zombie-ish. Most of the time I don't even remember what happened for the first part of the day.

You won't find too many people that call themselfs "programmers" either I'd say software developer because there is a hell of a lot more too it than just code.. (as you'd know if that was your job [title])

[Hobo]

I'm a programmer. But only because I'm meerly a first term of first year computer science student.

I can also so I'm not much of a programmer. Let alone software engineer.

[Disgruntled Intern]

I invented computers.

And electricity.

[Strike Witch]

But the wheel was mine, don't forget.

[scrab queen]

I invented the concept of a god so that people would be easier to round up in the event of a mass abuction. easiest invasion ever.
