And you are not guaranteed to be hired for those jobs. I personally know two 50 somethings who have been out of work for the past year and no one will hire them. They've applied EVERYWHERE, manual labor, McDonalds, retail, etc. It's not as easy as you make it out to me - and you'll find that out it you are ever unfortunate enough to become unemployed.
I agree. Years ago I ran a fast food place for a guy. A 50 year old applied for an open position, he'd been a skilled machinist at a factory which had closed, been looking for work for 2 years solid. BEGGED me for a job, my boss wouldn't hear of it, didn't fit the "image" he wanted, so back to hiring flaky kids.
I'll never forget the desperation in that mans eyes.
If it becomes legal, we can plant it on the farm that I am apparently purchasing from the OP.
If you are smart economically, you could grow it in doors and save the money on the move. I am sure some high pressure sodium lamps and the electric bill is still cheaper than a whole move. Profits per square foot of indoor bud is probably higher than outdoor bud.

You would have to way out the options.
LOL That's what I was thinking when I wrote that, I was like, "Why would I want to grow this in a field?" It's so much better indoors. I don't grow, hell no, but I know about it because I've read about it.

Happened to my father in the 90's. He was out of work for about 2 years and NO ONE works harder than that man. He found random odd jobs here and there until a retail chain took a chance on him, and he's been there almost 15 years now, their most reliable worker and a manager at the store.
Is there really a reason to be out of work? I mean...really?
I know a couple union guys and they tell me they can't work other jobs while unemployed when no union jobs are available, or they will lose their union benefits & their retirement gets screwed. They tell me being unemployed in the union is easy because it's legal for union reps to file all the unemployment papers for union members and they dont have to look for work.
I guess my point is that unions get to play by other rules then the rest of us when it comes to "unemployment" and "unemployment checks" - and is a reason unions members would not work or seek work.
