Your fake farmer toughness wouldn't last a day working in an artificially-lit, soul sucking office cubicle for someone else's profit!
Ha! Gotcha farmers!
Now if you'll excuse me I need to cry.
I worked in an office environment that regularly interacted with field workers. They would often give us grief about how easy our jobs are (being in an air conditioned office, on chairs, etc). Two of them got injured and in order to keep them earning a paycheck, and keep their sick hours, they came to help us in the office. They were supposed to be on restrictive duty for months I believe. Within two weeks they begged to go back into the field doing anything except helping us. Haven't heard any grief from them since. Haha.
