Glad I never lifted a finger this season. If I can't make my gas money weekly and at least $10/hr. for my efforts.. I aint doing it.
The "Fun" went out of it for me long ago. I still like the "fun" of the trapline, but I am NOT NOT NOT contributing to the further decline of the fur mkt. by giving away fur.
Bands charge money to play at a bar on Sat. night, a cabinet maker charges for woodworking skills....we should be no different.
