Bulls mate with cows

for example because they are twins

they degenerate hand in the barn.

chasing animals
makes them restless.

Some become aggressive.

Therefore, all involved must
do their work quickly and precisely.

On August 4, 2006 I started training
to become a farmer.



At first, I had difficulty in
I deal with everything.

I was really serious
to get up on time.

But you have created a good reputation

I often put a lot of work that
other practitioners did not want to do:

They take driving lessons
and it was not "their job".

The training showed me,

you do not have to be afraid
of technology.

As we know, one learns
life.

See all those cows!

Stay peaceful now.

Where is?
- Here.

We can try the calf.

Are you scared?
- Perhaps.

Are you afraid or not?



Stay there!

We'll catch the other side.

What's wrong?
- Saves up!

They look so angry.

Hold still now.

Can you see? It is not always so easy, right?
- Smart!

Now, if you want to move, will
You must firmly keep it here.

If you try to pull away,
hold your hand here,

Stuck to her head.

Clutching here.

If not, it will circle around you.

Did you see that? It is quiet.

But will also need to debug
and wild.

What happens to Marco?
Do not you hang?

We have not yet done. I have to
show something else.

If you do not listen, I will
miss half

and then you will blame me.

Well, let's go.

When we finish, we will have breakfast.

Now a grown man you, Mark?
- Yes.

Well, it should.

Some time ago

We talked much what happened
with you in your family,

all that you've been through as a child
and your family problems, but

at one point you must be prepared
put line

and say, "I am grown up Marco
not Mark - son.

This is now my life.

and I will not allow this in which
I went over to pull me back! "

This will not lead anywhere.
- What about me...

deal with the work.
I do my January

Yes it is.
- But the paperwork ...

You're a good worker.
We have no complaints about it.

And this is the point:
this is exactly the reason

we want to keep them,
if you take your final exam.

But the possibility is not enough.
You have to want it.

We have no doubt that the physical and
intellectual exactly for this job

But you have to want it.
You have to want it.

Do you want to work and are
two different things.

It is important domestic terms.

Still really not sure
whether it's good for me.

I mean to work here.

Want to take you to work
or not?

I have to say on board
What are you going to do.

I do not know.
- This complicates things a bit.

Should I do that?
- Good for my fingers.

Yeah right.

If your finger is better now

becoming only 30 will move.

Do you think you will live to 30?
- Do not you think so?

I do not know...

Want it?

Thankfully, working time is over.

At last!
What a day only!

Am I sweating?
- Nasty! Really stinks!

All this work.
Makes long movements!

Just kidding. Go on!
Are you crazy? It's not scary!

If only light you slide your hand ..

This knife will not make a big white
definitely!

80 ... 90 ... 1 euro.

I missed a couple of moves ...
- Yeah right!

How many?
5-6 euros.

Another safe?

Hey, look who's there! Marco!
- Marco!

Hello!
- Come to us!

Huh?
- Come here!

Will not you hang with us a little?

Sit down and drink a beer.
- You know I do not drink.

Where are you going?
- Come on. Sit less.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Good morning.

Good morning. I'm Jacob.

Here are the big ones.

Good morning.

Come on! Log in here!

Freeze!

Have big horns!
- Be careful with them.

They know that they will be punched in the nose.
- Clear.

Do not you dare, that ...

Then, look to close
Fast door!

Check whether closed nice.

It is not necessary to be
so clean.

When a dozen stools always remains
Here and there we slice straw her shit.

That you can not rob
on the other side.

Stinks!

Give, I will do it.
- No, nothing.

Do not you have work to do?

Actually, I have.

Do not leave then.
- Okay.

Come here!

Are you OK?

I realized that Lola worked
to 2 in the afternoon.

Catherine, do you?
- From 7 in the morning.

I'm afraid I have to work and
Sundays during the harvest.

There is no other way.
And you, Christian?

Yesterday?
- Yes.

7 to 18:15.
- And the day before?

From 7 to 17.

Yesterday grain he boots?
- No, straw.

Before I check your notebooks,

I want to present you the new student
probationer

It was alone would imagine, Jacob?
- Well

I'm Jacob Schaefer.

We want to know a little more.
Tell us a little about yourself.

I'm from Ludwigsfelde and ...

I started training for work in a bank,
but I decided to quit.

What made you decide to be
go about farming

rather than banking?

I do not know. It just was not
my thing.

There is a great difference in pay
between banks and farms.

And I think they are very conceited!

This too. What earns
a beginner bank clerk?

The first year you take
about 800 euros per month

Sad but true.
And it will not change soon.

Bankers will always receive more.

than people in production.

I just want to say something:

responsible for areas authorized
you instruct.

If they tell you to do something,
do not reply:

"You can not command me, loser!"

Who said so?
- Does not matter.

"Loser?" Nobody would say so ...
- Reports me ...

I just wanted to make it clear

"Report to me?"
What does it mean?

Or tell what you mean
or do not say anything?

Beat him in the head, you should
treat others with respect.

Otherwise, I have to cover it
in your recommendations.

You go with Catherine.

Do not be afraid to come and get me
ask if you have any questions.

All right. Successful first day Jacob!
- Thank you.

Do not you take a shower today?

Damn it!

What pushed?

It is OK.
And to me it happened to me once.

Push it!
- What's happening? Floods cause?

Push it! Honestly!
- Well, nothing.

Well, let's go!

Hi.
- Hi.

I experienced the day?
- Of course.

You will go again tomorrow?
- Yes.

Something to eat?
- The table is.

Here you №18.

And Cola.

Five euros, please.

Thank you.

Bye.
- Bye.

Marco?

Oh, hello.
- What's up?

Well, how are you?
- Good and you?

Great. Thank you.

I was thought to come
for more beer.

Want one?
- No thanks.

OK I understand.

Prefer sweet things, right?
- Yes, you know me.

Is everything okay with the work?

Yes.

A life in general?
- All right.

Do you know the girls?
- No.

Hello.
- Hi.

Maybe another time.
- Okay.

See you soon.
- Goodbye.

Good night.
- Goodbye.

Have you ever had problems?
- Actually, no, knock on wood.

What does "really"?
- Do not take unnecessary risks with them.

As we come and see that one
cows

hopping left and right or
ears and sharpened

or her head tilted side

then we know that something's wrong.

We must be careful if you have a calf.

But nobody happened to him
so far, knock on wood.

Now what?
- No, not there.

This right to your knee.
Disconnect the two wires.

They are not under pressure?
- No.

Do not be afraid. Not under tension.
Simply disconnected from the insulators.

Exactly. Now pull them behind your car

or sideways. And so it is.
- Is it OK?

Not so far. Then you will go
kilometers on foot to get them back.

This is a breeding bull.
I fed him by hand.

Says Philip.

More young.
Only 2 years old.

Two years?
- Yes.

Philip.

Philip! What's on your mind again?

Come here. Come here.

Philip.

Good boy.

Are not you afraid?
- No, Philip knows me. Not you, boy?

You see small, red with white tip
on the tail?

This may be a new bull.
I'll watch him.

If we can not catch him,
I will ride my little faster

and when the calf tail lift,
Stretch try to catch it.

Right?

Here. This is the new calf.

Now we just have to recognize that
the mother is in a good mood or not.

See how run.

Now I have to drive faster.
- What should I do?

Wait! Give me those pliers!

Now we need to ...
Oh no! I forgot my things.

Relax, Abuela!

What's that?

And if I come down?

I never took things.

Get out of the car now. take this
with you! Quietly, Philip!

What to do?
- Follow me!

I will try to catch the calf.

If the cow to leave me, do so
and say, "Get out!"

But do not run away!

Calm, calm ...

Get out, get out!

Right?
- Yes, yes, exactly.

Go away!
- Easy now ...

Watch her mouth is closed.
I do not want us slobbering purposes.

Go away. Calm!

Calm!

Watch cow, not me!

Pull now! Calm.
Everything is fine.

Do not go mad now!

Calm! Everything is fine!
Well, let's go. Done.

Probably a little afraid when
alone?

Yes. Everyone chasing little shubeto.

You will open my gate?

You have to come down here.

Close the door! Close the door!
Otherwise will tremble.

Hang them again?
- To catch them.

Look at you! It was scary, right?
- Yes, of course.

Hi Jacob. What's up?

Is everything alright?

Good morning.
- Hello.

Hi, Holger.

Now the rest!

First we will include battery
to check tension.

If animals touch it
receive a slight electric shock.

And if I touch it?
- You will get a shock.

Powerful?
- Wait a minute.

Keep it here.
- Yes.

Take this leaf and lightly touch the wire.
Nothing is going to happen.

Pretty nasty electric shock.

Now imagine how they feel cows
touch it with wet snouts.

That was fun, right?
- Found its new victim.

Exactly. New victim.

Easily tied.

Bye. See you soon.
- Goodbye.

Where is this thing?
- Further.

Attention! Attention!
The tank could not be located!

Do you live alone?
- No, in a shared apartment.

I gave a further 17.
- And your parents?

My mother was constantly drunk.
I had to move out.

... And your father?

Not worth to mention it.

What are you staring at?

Do you have a problem?

I do not have. You're Zver me.

What is the problem?
Soon you'll have one foot!

Go! Get out!

So you're thinking, right?
- Stay a little coffee?

Will have drained whatever.

What happens if you merge
blonde with a husky?

Blonde and husky?
I have no idea.

Or stupid dog

Would me the ashtray?

What is Mrs. Butch?
- Mrs. Butch?

It is like our second mother
all of us.

Did you odeve?
I had a small scratch

and: "Oh, let him namazhem
drug "

It is great.

I helped me get back
driver's license.

They took my book for four years.
- What have you done?

I drove drunk. Caught me
on the border.

They opened the door and fell inside
two bottles of vodka.

Seriously?
- We were five.

Me me out of the car
and they took my blood sample on the spot.

Shit!

It helped me when
squabbling with her mother.

I do not get along with her boyfriend
and she threw me out of the house.

So, no place to live.

And she let me settle an apartment.

Right here in Yenikendorf.

One-room apartment.

I will not find anything so fast
without her help.

You also may want
I will take it from Dad.

Really bad.
- Hey, it could've been worse.

Back to work, guys.

Hey! Are you ready?

Is it OK?
- Slight right.

Exactly.

I hooked it.
- Now connect both hose.

Yes, those. Contact them over there ..

One there.

Just push it hard.

Come on. Before it reached us.
- What?

Before flow is reached
the tractor.

Well, let's go.

I might stay here for a while.
- Why?

I do not know, I like it here.
- You want to stay here?

All right. I'm out.

Will go ...

Excuse me, do you know where
Mrs. Butch?

Mrs. Butch is in the conference room.
- Thank you.

Here it is explained how to write a report.

And your success so far
It has reached the requirements.

Few have to admit to
preliminary exam.

Hello.
- Jacob?

I can come back later.
- No, go.

Marco difficulties
writing reports.

And I'll have to do it.
- What?

To write reports.

Everyone is obliged to write.

If you think school is over
while you practice, I will disappoint.

Mark, could you gave him several sheets
to try and he?

Sit down.

Do not despair so easily.
- Not too many, right?

Do not, for example, when you were
the mill processing carrots.

So you can describe the technology
process there in his report.

Writing reports, is not different
by writing an essay in school.

And you should do the same
only for plowing.

Your report should be
focus on plowing,

to show that you understand all
stages of this activity.

Why should I write about?
Now I do it for the fifth time.

Exactly because of that.

Nobody will read it so
why write it?

I will read it to check
if he understood everything.

And finally you yourself will
understand better.

But I will not read it.

And you must write such reports
to be admitted to the final exam.

Let me help you?
- No.

Imagine that you go to the bank
and all they say:

"This stupid farmer can not even
to write".

That's how things are.

Imagine that you give a document
and you can not even understand it.

Now let's finish this sentence.

Will not do it!
No! Will not do it!

Here's your paper.
Come on!

Now take a piece of paper ...
- This is stupid!

Hey!

Man, his heavy!

I see.
- What?

I see.
- I thought so.

Stop.

Come here.

Hold it!

Hey!

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Can I come in?
- Of course.

Does it work?

I have no idea.

All right.

Stop!

I would like to travel somewhere.

In Poland or Berlin.

What are you doing in Poland?
- I do not know.

To see something new.

Rather, I went to Berlin.

But it's so expensive ...

Is everything alright?

What's wrong?

Fuck you with me?

Tell me, what's wrong.

Good morning.

Good morning. Jakob.

You do not lightly dressed?

Well, how's it going?
Do you work?

Yes of course.
- But it is hard work, right?

Getting up early, due to burrowing of
shit and so on ...

No, it is normal.

Everything else okay?
- Yes.

You see with others?
- Yes, we're fine.

All right.

To pick it up then.

Jacob comes to you.

Where is Mark?
- I have no idea.
