Staff Accountant: 2 years. I generally work 40-50 hours per week. I have a degree in Computer Science and would like to get back into IT at some point. I wasn't able to find my niche and fell back on Finance which is where most of my work experience lies.

I'm a self under-employed farmer I rent 100+ acres of cropland (corn,beans, wheat, mixed hay), and share-crop another 250 acres (corn, beans) with a friend. We do a little custom work on the side as well. There's pretty decent money in hay, be it for dairy or horse people in the area I live in, so that's where a lot of my attention has been focused lately. I do a fair amount of custom hay making for locals as well (easiest, most fun way I make money all year).

To subsidize my expensive farming habit, I do a fair amount of contract soil sampling in the fall, as well as work pretty much full time for my share-cropping buddy on his 25 acre pumpkin & squash wholesale operation as a field boss/laborer/truck driver for most of Sept.-Oct.

About the time I start burning out in late Nov., we get done with corn and fall fieldwork, and I get to lay around and attend conferences all winter long. As soon as it starts to warm up in Feb./Mar. to the point I can work in an unheated shop again, I'll have to get back to work maintaining my beater farm equipment, tractors, and car.
