Their cars are running, they're sitting in it,

Cheryl So, right now I'm 40 drivers in the queue.

I got 40 drivers ahead of me on Uber.

And on Lyft, I'm still 100.

Yup.

I'm on.

-Dory I'm not even in the queue, yo.

This is why I don't stay here, because I have no reception.

So how am I supposed to get a ride?

-Cheryl Well, and then the guy over here, he just said,

"I went to the bathroom."

He put his phone in his pocket, went to the bathroom,

and got kicked out of the queue.

Start all over again. -Dory Oh, yeah.

Dory I get kicked out of the queue every time I go

into the bathroom. -Cheryl This is ridiculous.

Cheryl This job is very addicting.

Cheryl One day you make a lot of money,

and then the next day you think, oh god,

the next day I can do this again.

Well, it don't work like that.

It just doesn't.

Cheryl First couple years, I made lots of money.

And then, these companies start slashing rates.

And they kept slashing, slashing, slashing the prices

so we're down half of what we used to make.

-Donn Yeah, yeah.

Donn Our great-grandfather Godfried Martin

bought this farm

and home in 1904.

And so, what you see around us

is five generations of history.

Donn I mean, even great-grandpa Godfried's pocket notebook

that he kept notes in, this is 1891.

I mean, this is agriculture of a different era.

Donn These are wool cards for stringing out the wool

to get it ready for spinning.

And then this, anybody want to take a guess what that is?

-Josh Mm, no.

I can't, I haven't the slightest idea.

-Donn That's for darning socks.

You know, it's a bunch of old stuff.

None of it's valuable on the market,

but Grandma instilled the history nut in me.

I mean, on our honeymoon,

Kathy and I followed the Santa Fe trail out to New Mexico.

I mean, I've always been a history nut.

Donn You feel a lot of responsibility

and obligation to your ancestors,

and so as farms consolidate and are absorbed

by larger farms, you know, there's this sense of not only

letting down yourself and your family

but your ancestors, and that's hard to deal with.

I was on a call yesterday, and Chelsea said

that their goal was to have states notified

by September 8th.

-Donn If we're gonna focus our grant on,

on the farm crisis response again,

this would be our, our best route to go.

Donn I always said I'd never work off the farm,

but that's what I'm doing.

And my salary is key to keep our farm going.

-Woman Go to Colby on the 15th.

-Donn Mm-kay, well, that'll be a road trip.

-Woman Yeah, it'll be close one down,

get in the car and go to the west end of the state.

-Donn Kathy and I often talk

about what we'd have done different,

and we really can't think of anything

unless I found a rich wife.

Donn Man, something smells good.

-Kathy I only cook the best.

-Donn I started dating Kathy

when she was 14 years old coming up to be a freshman

in high school, and we've basically

been inseparable since then.

-Kathy I don't know what you did with her.

-Donn I've had her all along.

Donn Why, I'm just like a lot of other farmers right now

Donn I've got two grown sons that both have lives

off the farm that help when they can.

-Tyler Here, let me get you a new fork.

-Zach You going straight to DC from there?

-Donn Well, right now I'm landing in Kansas City

and this is my job, not yours.

-Melissa Um, 'cause we're down,

Welcome to Ohio Means Jobs, Lorain County.

So, what do we do?

We help people find jobs.

We help employers find employees.

And we help job seekers gain employable skills.

So, I already got asked this morning

before we actually got started about going to school.

That is not our primary goal.

Our primary goal is employment.

Any questions?

No?

All right, so, I'm passing out the registration packets

that you need to complete.

What are you aiming to do with this program?

-Pete My goals, I don't,

I don't want to work for anybody.

I wanna work for myself.

I want to start my own business.

Pete First choice would be HVAC.

I understand that I might have to work

for a year or two with someone

to maybe get some experience,

but at some point I'm absolutely gonna branch off on my own.

-Counselor Do you have any HVAC experience?

-Pete Zero.

Zero experience.

Pete I remember being in fourth grade,

my father got laid off,

It was low-income housing from that point forward.

And, so we literally moved to the other side of the tracks.

Pete Walk right through this sidewalk here

and get to the middle of the projects.

And that's where it all went down.

That's where everyone wanted to be.

The reality of it was I learned how to cook cocaine

into freebase when I was 14 years old.

Pete The choice was either you sink or you swim.

And I'm talkin' shark infested waters.

I don't want Alex to waste years of his life like I did.

I want him to allow my mistakes to teach him

and to actually be his.

I want him to be better than me,

so that's what I kind of focus on.

-Melissa Okay.

Melissa Are you done with the unemployment office then?

-Pete I'ma be dealing with them till I do what I do.

-Melissa Stop it.

-Pete Either do my business or get a job.

Pete But I learned something today.

This world, they don't teach you how to,

like start a business, or, or even, you know like,

for example, like you know how I've been talking about

how I want to invest money and stuff like that?

Like, they don't, they don't even talk about any of that.

-Melissa Well, Junior, you could talk

to a financial consultant.

-Pete No, it ain't even about that.

I mean, not one time did they talk about

anything other than how to be a good worker.

That's all they want to do.

They want to teach you to work and just be

a regular little employee.

I don't wanna be regular.

-Reporter A lot of times,

even when manufacturing jobs come back to the United States,

they left paying $33 an hour,

they came back paying 15 or $16 an hour.

-Reporter I think this is the biggest challenge

facing Western leaders, and no one, frankly,

has come up with any good solutions.

What do you do about post-manufacturing job growth,

and what do you do about wages for people

who are still in the manufacturing sector?

-Terry Detrick When a farm fails,

the person who was in charge when it failed

feels they have betrayed previous generations

and future generations.

This year, my grandson, a fifth generation,

25 years old,

put out his first crop.

USDA has projected a 50% decline in income.

This year, net income for farmers.

Any of y'all want to take half a cut in pay?

Try to pay your bills.

That's what is happening.

Thank you.

-Committee Member Thank you, Terry.

And, Donn Teske is next.

Donn is the Vice President of National Farmers Union

and also a grain and livestock farmer.

-Donn Good afternoon, and thank you

for having the patience today to be here with us.

And so I'm 62 now, and so I figure I'm in that fine line

between wise old sage and silly old coot.

I want to get kind of the basics

of working with a farm family, is what I want to share.

Not all of my clients are crisis clients

that I would do work with estates and et cetera,

but the vast majority were crisis calls.

And there were many a night when I had a wife call me

and say, "You need to talk to my husband

"because he's not going to last till morning."

And if you talk all night long to someone

so they don't shoot themselves,

it gets pretty damn personal.

We as a society owe the American farmer

a way of having all the help they can

to do what they need to do to move forward

with their lives and their families.

I'm sorry to drag it on but thank you very much

for your time.

-Committee Member Thank you, Donn.

-Donn Theodore Roosevelt was the first trustbuster.

He's the first one that took seriously

the concentration of the industrial complex of America.

And Farmers Union's main mission's now,

one of our things we take to the Hill,

is the concentration in agribusiness

and what that's doing to the family farmer.

And, it would just be so wonderful

to have another Theodore Roosevelt right now.

if you've ever worked in manufacturing plant

or if you've ever worked in one place all the time,

it kinda gets old having your boss right there.

In this field, in this field you're kinda on your own.

Cheryl Well, I just want to let you know that today

at four o'clock there's a coordinated break

in protest from four to six.

Cheryl So, Rob, you're driving during the protest hours?

-Rob If I'm out driving then yes.

I'm not turning off during that time.

-Dory Turning your app off for two hours

is not going to cut that much into your damn money.

I don't care what anybody says.

-Rob I don't think it would make a difference

until we get larger numbers.

-Cheryl You know what amazes me is

if the drivers in India

can get 50,000 drivers to stop driving, but we can't?

That's just, that, I don't get it.

I just don't get it.

-Dory They don't understand

that they could make it better for themselves

if they would just stand up and fight for it.

People in these third-world countries know that.

You know, they can make change if they stand up together

and we've given up on that.

and then the year after that they brought $30,000.

Maureen They want your future.

Pete You still got people at Starbucks that...

-Pete I need at least $10 an hour.

-Melissa Okay, but why don't you do--

-Arianna Walmart.

Arianna That's the only place I know--

Melissa If not, Sam's Club and just say,

"Listen, these are the hours."

-Pete 'Cause I don't want to drive

and Sam's Club closes at eight o'clock.

-Melissa You're being awfully picky.

-Pete I would be there probably by 5:30.

You really think they're going to let me work

for 2 1/2 hours?

Pete I am being picky.

Pete When I fill out these applications--

-Melissa Gas stations will do it.

-Pete Man, you know what, I'm done talking to you.

I'm not working at no gas station.

Did she not hear what I said?

I'm gonna repeat it one more time.

Gas stations don't hire convicted felons.

Pete What do you think I'm looking for?

-Melissa I'm saying why be so picky on picking a job?

We are dry, that's the good news

I know Junior.

He does not want to struggle.

Melissa I try to protect him,

you know, from making mistakes,

because if not, Junior would be in jail.

Melissa I fell in love with Junior, immediately.

I knew.

Junior was 21 and I was 16.

Here I am 16 years old, watching him make crack.

you gotta do what you gotta do.

I got into the mortgage industry.

That was all she wrote. laughs

'Cause I made money in it, so I stayed in it.

-Cheryl I'm always working on the weekend.

Cheryl This car is three years old.

I spend more of my time with people I don't know

than my family, and that's the truth of it all.

-Passenger I had the best four or five days.

I just got back from Stone Mountain of all places.

-Cheryl That's interesting.

-Passenger Well, Stone Mountain is very unique,

we go camping there.

-Passenger What's the craziest Uber story that you have?

-Cheryl Um, I've had women hit on me.

I've had men hit on me.

I've had men try to grope me.

Cheryl I mean, I've been thinking about going

to get my real estate license,

but there could be a lot of disappointment

in that game, too.

Cheryl Like, would you say the American dream

is still getting a house, owning a house?

-Passenger Oh, yeah.

-Cheryl You do?

You think that's still the American dream?

Cheryl I don't think it is anymore, to be quite honest.

Cheryl I'm not sure what the American dream is anymore.

-Passenger Yeah, yeah.

My family is lacking right now in seeing me.

I got chewed out royally by Bear today.

Chewed out.

And it's like, I deserve it, to be frank, quite frank.

I deserve it.

Like, they don't see me.

They don't see me enough.

My grandson doesn't see me enough.

My kids don't see me enough.

Because I'm always trying to make what I need to survive.

And I'm not asking for more.

Just what I need, you know?

-Maureen All I need is time.

Time to figure out who I am, who I want to be,

and where I want to go.

-Aaron So our goal is to be a one-stop shop.

We come in and we build the items for 'em,

we take care of them through the PM department,

we service them for any emergencies,

and then when they're old and falling apart,

we'll do the exchanges and take care of them.

So that way we are with the customers from the beginning.

Melissa So when the,

the lady that was talking to you,

who was it, the counselor?

Or was she the therapist?

-Alex Counselor. -Melissa A counselor?

Melissa Is this stuff that you completed?

Melissa "I do things other people would think are strange.

"I wear old shoes, listen to old music, and roll up pants."

That's 'cause you're unique,

it's not 'cause you're strange.

-Alex No, that's different.

-Melissa Okay.

Melissa "Sessions with Alex lack productivity

"as he was often single-minded

"and unwilling to accept and responsible for his actions,

"be open to change."

So they're saying that you're not open to change.

Melissa So, tomorrow I'm calling them

to see what their recommendations are.

-Alex What do you mean?

-Melissa To see what they came up with.

Things to help you.

Melissa This is not bad.

Melissa Hope you know.

Melissa All right?

So maybe for the next year you won't have a hard time.

-Alex At least Ms. Thompson's leaving

because that means I don't have to deal

with her yelling at me.

-Melissa It's not that, Junior, Alex,

it's just that they're trying to help you figure things out,

so that way you don't have a hard time in school.

You understand?

-Alex Mm hm.

-Melissa So don't make it seem

like it's because they're attacking you.

It's that they are trying to help you.

in another young person into the farm?

Is it gonna cash flow?

How's it gonna be?

I have three daughters

and you sometimes think about, well,

what kind of lifestyle do you want for them?

-Poppy Right.

These are the issues that we always have to face.

As I came into the room earlier,

someone I met right off the bat said they were thinking

about how to bring children into the operation,

knowing that the operation already

wasn't supporting their generation,

so it was not at all clear

how it was gonna support a second generation.

Poppy I'm curious if any of you have gotten bogged down

at this point of trying to have a conversation

with your family.

Is there someone in the family

who sort of always gets saddled

with the burden of being the responsible one?

Are they becoming resentful of that?

Poppy Does anyone here have a written plan

for some sort of a written emergency operations plan

for their farm?

Poppy Like, something happened to you,

are you confident that all the bills could get paid?

Poppy All the animals could get fed?

People could make bank transfers as needed?

-Donn Uh, sighs

for almost a year now I've been battling an issue

with my thyroid.

The physician, he says,

"We had to do a CT scan that included your lungs.

"And on the very edge of the CT scan,

"we found something concerning."

And so...

They made us stay overnight and then do an MRI on Wednesday.

They confirmed I have a mass in my kidney

that's almost certainly cancerous.

We're just scared right now.

And that's why I asked to do this.

I thought, it's gonna come out anyhow,

we just as well get it on tape.

So, that's all I wanted to say.

That helps him, Junior.

You don't think?

I mean, seriously.

I just don't want him being by himself, sitting.

it's pretty packed in middle school lunch right now,

so there will always be somebody sitting with somebody.

The issue here is one thing.

Pete I bet you don't, you can't even name

the one thing I've asked of you.

-Melissa To be on your side when it comes to parenting!

-Pete Right.

So, have you done that for real?

-Melissa Okay.

-Pete Have you done that for real?

-Melissa Yes, anything you want, Junior.

I'm telling you.

But if you could just open your eyes just a little bit

and see that this kid, our son, is really having issues.

-Pete His issues are--

-Melissa No, Junior, you fail to see he is having issues.

-Pete His issues are that he does not know how to own up

to the things that he does.

Pete That's what his issues are, Melissa,

in case you're forgetting.

"It's the teacher's fault."

"The teachers are picking on me."

Pete I'm gonna tell you something right now.

You want to know what the real issue here is?

The real issue here is us,

that all he ever sees is me and you arguing.

So, really, the reality of it is,

that me and you aren't healthy for the boy.

-Melissa Then let's work on you and me.

Why can't we work on you and me?

Because the love is there.

-Pete Because--

-Melissa No, the love is there.

let's not throw away 25 years.

So it's a real nice, nice touch.

-Pete This is really nice.

Pete Wow.

-Agent God forbid, in case of an emergency,

I can call Ana Maria?

-Pete Yes, that's my mom.

-Agent Is there anyone else I could call?

-Pete I would say my current wife, but,

given the circumstances that have me looking

for an apartment, probably not.

-Agent Okay, no problem.

-Pete Um, at some point, I do want to be able

to have my son with me. -Agent Okay, I understand.

-Pete But we're looking at, he's in seventh grade now,

so we're looking at, I don't want him to go

to high school in Lorain. -Agent Gotcha.

-Pete So we're looking at another year and a half,

approximately.

-Agent Okay, so in other words,

another year and a half to settle matters, perhaps?

And then you may need a two-bedroom.

-Pete And then I may need a two-bedroom, exactly.

-Agent Okay.

Well, look us up, and we'll see what we can do for you.

But for the time being, the one bedroom would suffice?

-Pete Absolutely. -Agent Okay.

-Pete Beautiful apartments.

$940 a month, though.

That's,

that's a lot.

-Tony Robbins And that leadership component,

as I say, doesn't always mean somebody follows you.

A leader is somebody who lives life on their terms,

that you will never settle for less than you can be,

or share, or give, or create.

It's not what we get that makes us happy,

it's who we become.

How we live our life, who we are as a person,

people can take away all the things,

but who you become, no one can take away

and the problem is most of us are trying

to be something we're not,

but it isn't so much about change.

-Cheryl I'm putting the gel on.

And it's supposed to help with your hormone balance.

It's HGH.

And there's over 40 different benefits from it,

so you can, you may experience weight loss,

muscle gain.

And this is actually what my new business is. laughs

Cheryl I've joined a multi-level marketing company,

that has got to do with anti-aging benefits for the body.

Cheryl I'm pretty excited.

Knowing that I'm gonna eventually

be able to quit driving.

Cheryl I'm moving on.

Moving on.

-Tony Robbins You're gonna be alive when it's really you.

You'll feel euphoric, you'll feel calm,

you'll feel unlimited, you'll feel free.

birds chirping

-Donn sighs

So I don't know how to start this conversation,

but, you know, I'm not blessed to have the ability

to just retire because I'm servicing too much debt and so,

you know, probably gonna have to sell a piece of ground

to reduce the debt to make it work our way into retirement.

-Zach When you're saying selling it,

you mean selling it to us?

-Donn You or someone.

-Zach Tyler, what are your thoughts?

-Tyler I would like to continue the cow herd.

My thoughts.

Tyler I mean-- -Zach You want to?

Or you just

don't want to be the reason that it doesn't continue?

-Tyler No, I want to.

-Zach My concern is that you have this little problem

that I also have, and that's that you don't want

to tell Dad something that he doesn't want to hear.

-Tyler Mm, no.

-Donn I don't know that I'd advise you to do it.

I mean, I did it, and you kids were raised

in that environment where I was always broke

and always stressed out.

And that's probably affected you negatively,

but I look back and I don't know

what I'd have done differently.

-Zach Ultimately, you say what do you want out of it

at the end of the day.

What I would prefer out of it at the end of the day would be

that that land is not owned by somebody else.

Pete I don't know if there's a woman that will ever

love me as much as this woman does.

I'm still in the fight.

and not make a living doing it.
