We sent a college kid to the truck to get a phillips screwdriver, came back and said "No Phillips, they're all Stanleys." I can't make that shit up, what a moron.
I think I also convinced him that my cat was possesed by Satan, he was terrified of my cat.

That must be the guy they hired here. just a complete idiot. A lot of times I just like to tell myself they’re young and they will learn and then I have days like today where I wonder if I’ll ever be able to retire

Well today I drove two hours to show three gentlemen that a valve needed to be shut to reduce their cold water intake. Then I drove two hours back to the shop to get called again and asked how to make the water a little bit colder because it got too hot. which I spent 30 minutes explaining how to regulate a cold water regulator valve. mind you these are college graduates with associates degrees in mechanics .these damn kids anymore man don’t know how to do anything unless you literally hold their hand and guide them through it

I sold the farm today....the price of weed ain't in it any more and I ain't getting any younger. I can buy weed cheaper here in Cali than I can grow it. Somebody made me an offer I couldn't refuse. I'm glad I had the farm completely paid off. He got the farm and all of the plants in the greenhouses. He has a market in his home state that will cover it. I received a sizable down payment and I will carry my own 10 year note. Not a bad deal, almost doubled my retirement for the next 10 years.
On a side note, at $20 a pop for clones I might just use my basement and sell him (and others) clones. I can make a decent profit flipping those out of my hydro cloners. Some of the neighbors up there were having trouble finding good clones this year. I'm able to produce 1000 at a time every 3-4 weeks. I could afford to pay $1000 for a cut of the latest hot strain to drop on instagram and offer it at $20. Much easier than running the farm and just as much profit with less risk.

It's tough out there. Sounds like you made the right call. Weeds just going to keep getting cheaper. Best to run with the money while you still can. Good luck with your future endeavors.

I’m sorry I have one more story for today. As I was standing there with those three gentlemen the one asked me if I could superheat steam to make the steam hotter. I didn’t even answer him I literally shook my head as I walked away. Jesus Christmas I really don’t understand what’s happened to the working class people anymore I was trained by people that knew how to do their jobs like masters and worked with gentleman who took their jobs just as serious as they did anything else in their lives and now I’m getting asked if I can superheat steam not if I can give you more pressure.

Do use use anything for the bottom with that or is it just the foil right on the ground?

Just foil on the ground and around the sides at the bottom. You can build this roaster anywhere in less than 1/2hr and when it's over and you roll up the foil you would never know it was there. Takes about 4-5 bags of charcoal and 6-8hrs to roast a pig, flipping once. Meat just falls off the bone...

Love it . We just borrowed a big ass rotisserie grill to do a pig on July 4. I hate asking people to borrow shit so this will definitely be my set up next year to do the pig.
