For a lot of golfers, being a greenkeeper might be quite high up on their list of alternative careers. Being outside on a well-manicured golf course, enjoying those early mornings with only the birds to keep you company, and the satisfaction of looking on at a freshly-mown fairway.
But, if I can bring you back down to this planet for a second, what about the other side? Heading out in ALL weathers to minimize any potential damage, dealing with complaints from unhappy players who think the 13th green is a bit too bumpy, and keeping on top of the leaves during the months where trees like to make a mess.
