    What if part of his job was shooting rabbits, possums, goats, deer and other pests? And home killing stock?

    Who knows what his boss pays him to do?

    I like your thinking, if we all said we were taxi drivers we could drink beer and drive happy in the knowledge we won’t loose our Driver’s License as we need it for our job

    Highly unlikely on a dairy farm at Kaihere. The odd goat and deer in the hills but not on the plains, and very few people process their own homekill cattle.
    And euthanising stock can be done with a captive bolt gun, which doesn't require a FAL. Increasingly common on dairy farms now.
