What is work that shows up?

[Oogiem]

Is it possible to plan unplannable, unexpected workbthat shows up?

Sure, I know for example that during lambing a certain percentage of the sheep will need assistance. So I plan not to leave the farm then and do prep things like stocking up with food and coffee before the lambalanch starts. I know that we will have storms and need to work on ditches, so I can prepare a list of phone numbers to call when there is an emergency. What I can't plan for is exactly when these things will occur.

For me planning for the work as it shows up is preparation to be able to handle everything.

Kelly had a good point about work as it shows up can be good interruptions. I am sure there are some for me but I honestly can't think of any off the top of my head. I'm going to try to be more aware of those sort of interruptions and see how many there are. I only remember the emergency ones.
