I too have noticed that people are very quick to complain about the 4x4 harvesters that take everything but they don't bother to say thank you when you tell them you will stop at half. I always leave half if I'm working with someone else, and I always tell them right away not to leave just because I have the 4x4 tools because I will stop at half. Only ONCE has anyone ever said thank you, and it was the farm owner, not the other worker who said it. Courtesy goes both ways.
