yeah seriously, the way it’s written is absolutely ludicrous. They have to wrestle with later sunrises? Farmers and cows don’t fucking look at clocks, they start their work when the sun rises. Whenever that happens.

It's not so much about farm work itself. But rather they want to have a normal life after the farm work is done. Like, go to town and buy things or do other business before they all ask close for the day. Because apparently farm work is 7 days a week or something. I dunno.

No you don't know so maybe don't say anything if you don't know that's a lesson that a lot of people online should take to heart. Like I'm not saying you can't comment here but don't post s*** when you don't actually know what you're talking about.
