I just thought I could jump in here and let some opinion.

Manure management gets a bad rep for some reason, but believe me, if you are
phisically fit, managing manure is less stressful than modern jobs

Seriously.

And by that I mean that spending a whole morning pushing charts loaded with
horse poop across a flooded field, getting stuck every 2 meters, is less
stressful, and I would say it can be relaxing, compared to 1st world jobs such
as publishing papers on deadlines, customer service, or running server farms.
