I’m a ranch hand on a small ranch and I wish to work on a ranch all my life

Thank you for letting Mitch work with you guys. He absolutely loved it and he would always have a story of what happened that day at work. He definitely will remember you all.

@_israelpizana 6 лет назад

Working on a ranch is the best first job you can have. Teaches you so many values. I worked with my dad all through my four years of high school in a horse farm. Sometimes even had to go do stuff before heading off to school. Its a beautiful life indeed!

@OurWyomingLife 6 лет назад

Glad people like Mitch have a desire to serve, pray for his safety. My boys keep getting older and I'll lose my second son to college in a couple weeks and he will be missed. It is so nice to have help with some jobs and have experienced people to help you.

@frankirwin2377 6 лет назад

Good training Mitch. The ranch work is good to prepare one for the Service. You'll have to keep us updated on Mitch's progress. I did the similar path from the ranch into the Army. At least you know Mitch has learned some good tools from his work at the ranch.

@OurWyomingLife 6 лет назад

I agree, I hope that the skills he learned here, he will be able to translate into the real world. We have only heard that Mitch is still in basic training but according to his mom, he loves it. Hopefully we will get more of an update when he finishes basic. Thanks Frank - Mike

I hope you like the Army enough to make it a career wish I would have stayed in the Marine Corps my 20. And Mike I know Samuel and Mitch went to the Army any of your other Ranch hands went to the service also.

This is what young people need. They may not realize it but working on the ranch will teach them more than just ranch work. I am glad to see young people such as Mitch. He seems like a good kid and wish him all the best. Thank you Mike for giving these kids a source for making their own money and learning a few skills. This is good for them as much as it is good for you!

@JD-by9np 7 лет назад

The work ethic he learned on your ranch will go a long way to helping him be successful in the Army. All the hard work you put him through means he will be able to literally run circles around some of the other recruits who have never worked a hard job before. Drive and work ethic are everything for the military and you have instilled both in him it sounds like. Good luck Mitch

@CharlesLScofieldJr 5 лет назад

Hopefully, Mitch is doing well in the Army. I hope Mitch was able to get the field he wanted. Hopefully Mitch was able to go into diesel mechanic as a field. As for myself, I served 20+ years in the Army. For the most part, I took it 3 years at a time except for the 4th re-enlistment I took 4 years and then six years on my last which put me over 20 years. Desert Storm sorta put a hold on me retiring as planned.

Mitch, growing up in Wyoming, then enlisting in the Army, seems like pretty foreign territory! That's why you'll be one of the more "ready" for basic training. Good luck Mitch, and Mike, you'll probably be getting a few more blisters on your hands and more mud on your boots! Good luck to both of you! LOL!

@acerbicatheist2893 4 года назад

Yeah I encountered an army from cadets, considered RAMC as comissioned medic, auto captaincy means they can't fuck you around so much....then my medical career imploded, I became a microbiologist, and I'm loving the way the pandemic is helping humanity deal with the appalling hubris it is so often guilty of. We needed reminding of our vulnerabilities. Wait...oh yeah the army, right... Hats off to Lieutenant-colonels everwhur especially in charge of MASH units. Thankyou doctors. Oh yes...I just can't keep it zipped, maybe you noticed! XD

@davemetz7368 6 лет назад

I love the fact you are giving younger folks the chance to work on your ranch and to grow the experience of the work ethic there, which requires a multitude of various tasks, which will serve them later in life.The other day I mentioned the word " posse " to my 3 grandsons, aged 10, 11, and 12, and they responded...pa pa, what's a posse ? I started to say when you watch cowboys and indians on tv ...... ( when i was interupted ). They said whats cowboys and indians ? I was SHOCKED to learn none of the boys had ever watched a western on tv, because the are constantly playing with their electronics, i-pad, etc. I have to feel discouraged for some of the youth today, not having the chance to experience a life on the farm. Best of luck to Mitch and to you also on your next replacement. Love the old pick-up truck in the beginning of your video !

@OurWyomingLife 6 лет назад

I do think its important to give kids that want to work a chance to see a different side of things. McDonalds doesn't raise hamburgers and the like. It also gives them a chance to use their problem solving skills in real life. Lots of times I get calls with a problem and if its not life or death, I tell them they can figure it out. 9 times out of 10 they do. We recently heard from Mitch and he has graduated from basic training and is now moving on to his job training. We are excited to see him next time he comes home. Thanks for watching - Mike

@leroywilliams618 2 года назад

There is no more and less a decision when you’re working on the ranch so I won’t be hard to tell with the easy so I’ve been nothing but it pays off in the long run if you don’t understand what ranching is all about that’s the best thing to have in life because he’ll make a person understanding enjoying your life with her cattle is the most important thing of life

I've always wanted to be a farmer on the ranch, I have no experience as of speak but I have a offer to work as a ranch hand on a ranch north of me and he says he's willing to train as I stated I would like to work on a ranch and commit to them with my skills and learn and grow with them , I'm a blank canvas to be taught , I have a natural love and passion for wildlife and cows, I have another 30 years of work left in me and I want to make a life and career and lifestyle for my family, I know I'm older starting out as I see your ranch hands are younger, but I should still go for it right? I am a fast learner and can brave the weather, Any tips for a older new comer?
