What is work that shows up?

What is work as it shows up then: spare time when I'm just sitting and waiting for something to happen?

oh S**t stuff you could not plan for that has to be dealt with NOW

for example

Notice ewe lambs have unlatched and opened the gate between them and the ram and so it's an emergency sheep sort and find a chain and better latch for the gate and mark how many might have been bred so I can add them to the ultrasound list.

50 year rain storm resulting in a flooded culvert that threatens to wash away the road up our hill so it's get SO to get the backhoe out ASAP to try to clear it while I start calling everyone on the mesa to bring shovels.

Elderly cat falls off the bed and gets injured so it's off to the vet.

Bear inside our 8 ft elk fence harassing our sheep but then treed by guard dogs so it's call DOW, sheriff and then monitor bear until it goes away.

Ewe in labor with stuck lamb needs assistance.

Just to mention a few that I've had in the last few years.
