Agreed. I have several customers (horse people) that I have been working with for years. A couple literally started out by checking my fields (like wine makers checking a vineyard) before they would buy from me. They know I am extremely cautious with cutting and know I never try to sell hay that has been wet. I talk to them before I mow and they know when it will be ready and they know if it rained after I said I cut their hay. I arrange delivery and unloading with them - usually with the owner supervising. It is a big PIA but I get $6 a bale or $240 a ton for brome - and usually the boys get a "tip" for unloading.
I do burn some vacation days but I am working side by side with my sons and they learn how to work. To many kids today the first full day of work they put in occurs sometime after their 18th birthday and for many college kids its sometime after they turn 22 or 24.
