Keep Greasing the Zerks

6/5/2014

When the pressure’s on, it becomes all too easy to skip the little things that keep things working. In the long days of June, make sure you take the time to grease the Zerk fittings, check the oil in the tractor at the beginning off every day, and tighten the bolts. No matter how fast the weeds are growing, and no matter how little time there is before the next rain, you’ve got to take the time to do the small things that make sure that the big things don’t go massively wrong.

By the way, that goes for relationships just as much as it does for machinery.
