Yes IT SMELLS LIKE POOP!!!!!

 

The thing is it smells like poop!!!!

Ok I love it that my last two Jobs have involved scooping some form of animal feces.  The first one horse stalls the second mulch (cow poop and wood chips).  The best thing about it is it smells like poop!!  So when I am sitting there in my gator (small john deer go cart with a bed) with a pile of hot steaming mulch there will be a somewhat poop like odor in the air.  There for why must we make the rude statement it smells like poop out here when walking by me and my co workers.  I find it very interesting how people at this great Christian institution look down on those of us who work at the school.  They love the way the grounds look but they still seem to think they are better than those that make it look that way.  If it is a question of money a trained grounds keeper can make 4 or 5 times what a minister makes.  If it is the question of intelligence I have had the wonderful opportunity of seeing these so called intellectuals in action many of them can’t even read a simple sign placed in large writing directly in front of their faces.  If it is a question of the attitudes of the men and women I work with then I would have to say they are a lot less arrogant and self righteous than many of the doctorial students who walk the halls of this excellent institution.  It impresses me that these people are here to learn how to be shepherds, disciples, and evangelists but they are not even willing to speak to someone who might happen to be a little smelly or dirty.  WOW what a great job of Christ like behavior these people are displaying.

Now I want you to understand that this is not the whole of the students that I go to school with but it is startling how many people behave in this manner.  These people are not bad people they are no different than you and I they are just LOST and they need someone to love them and show them the Love that Christ would have shown and not beat these people over the head with their NASB with the Apocrypha or their Systematic Theology Book.  I am no saint, I am not a perfect Christian and I don’t always speak to those that I should about my faith, BUT when one of my co- workers comments on the attitude of the students and their “so called Christian attitude” it makes me question the progress of our evangelical calling (not just the students at this school but MINE as well).

Ok funny thing happened yesterday.  I work grounds crew and a young fellow I work with came to the sports complex and used our trailer to get a turf cutter (which ways a lot) from a rental place.  When he came back he was trying to unhook the trailer with the turf cutter still on the back end of the trailer.  He couldn’t get the trailer unhooked so from what I understand he begins jumping on the back of the truck trying to loosen the trailer hitch.  Needless to say it became loose and flew up and hit him square in the  “family jewels”.  He was taken to the hospital where we hear he was ST I TCHID UP and told to place ice on it.  My first question is why didn’t he take the heavy piece of machinery off the trailer, my second why did have the trailer hitch between his legs, and my third how is ice going to help that?!!!
