[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3208709, member: 5412"] Your dad was a frugal farmer it appears. Most farmers that made a living out of that tough life did exactly the same if they wanted to stay in that business very long. Most folks would be amazed at the ingenuity that farmers and ranchers have to do on a daily basis to stay in the game. My wife's uncle is fond of the story where he ran over a ditch he didn't see until it threw him off the seat and into the area behind the tractor between him and the disk. The cuff on his jeans that was common in that day caught on the tractor and it dragged him 1/4 mile until it hit a tree and staled. If that cuff had not been there he would have been sliced up. Farming is #8 in the most dangerous jobs in America. Want to know how other careers fared? Here’s a list of the most 25 most dangerous jobs in America. [LIST=1] [*]Fishers and related fishing workers [*]Logging workers [*]Aircraft pilots and flight engineers [*]Roofers [*]Refuse and recyclable material collectors [*]Structural iron and steel workers [*]Driver/sales workers and truck drivers [*]Farmers, ranchers and other agricultural managers [*]First-line supervisors of landscaping, lawn service and groundskeeping workers [*]Electrical power-line installers and repairers [*]Miscellaneous agricultural workers [*]First-line supervisors of construction trades and extraction workers [*]Helpers, construction trades [*]Maintenance and repair workers, general [*]Grounds maintenance workers [*]Construction laborers [*]First-line supervisors of mechanics, installers and repairers [*]Police and sheriff’s patrol officers [*]Operation engineers and other construction equipment operators [*]Mining machine operators [*]Taxi drivers and chauffeurs [*]Athletes, coaches, umpires and related workers [*]Painters, construction and maintenance [*]Firefighters [*]Electricians [/LIST] [URL]https://www.ajc.com/news/world/these-are-the-deadliest-jobs-america-study-says/pKusOItm8JG6m0P4SCrXuN/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
