[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1773857, member: 42463"] I worked for Peterson Industries in NW Arkansas. They are a big outfit whose main business is meat chicken breeding stock. They have their own jets and deliver eggs and chicks all over the world. But they also have one of the most magnificent herds of Santa Gertrudis anyone has ever seen. They had a two year old bull in the mid eighties that was as good as any Gert bull in the world, valued at 200K. Massive weaning and yearly weights. But the bull had an attitude. They were working the bulls one day and this particular bull was in the chute behind two others. They'd catch a bull in the headgate and park a one ton dually flatbed backed up against the gate so the bulls wouldn't damage the gate and get through... and the expensive two year old pushed the two bulls ahead of him through the headgate and the truck out of the way. I saw him in the trailer soon after and the guy driving was headed to the slaughter house. That's some pretty expensive hamburger... but they lived by what you said. "Reputation is everything."
