Hi Carlos,

Try working in a hayfield in Louisiana in August where you load 40 ft. trailers with hay while imbedded in the hay are rats, snakes and all other sort of hayfield vermin or a rice field where the work conditions are the same but the snakes have their friend, the leeches, in the water with them and you. Delivering pakages in a nice truck is a pretty easy job. I used to do it with Fed EX and it's a lot better than the hayfield
and it certainly wasn't the hardest work I ever did.

When you figure the risk of owning the hayfield or the ricefield and your livelyhood being based on weather conditions and the commodities market, I'd say the owner, who was in the field right next to me, had the hardest job. The UPS guys are complaining with their mouth full.

Dave
