Right now I work on my family’s farm. We raise breeding cows. We feed them hay in the winter and they grass-graze in the summer. It’s important to move the cattle so that they don’t overgraze.
We also have to take care of their health. We make sure that they are dewormed, vaccinated, and given medications to prevent fleas and other parasites.
I am also partners with a guy doing landscaping work.
After graduation, I plan to work on the farm for a year or two. Following that, I plan to go to lineman’s school. The training is a four-month course in Georgia. I want to be a journeyman lineman, traveling to help out after storm damage. I know a couple of guys who did storm lineman work after storms created damage in Texas and they earned $60,000 a month!
I’m really excited about graduating. I’m ready to get onto bigger and better things!
