Re: Professionals in cutting Trees :)

I don't speak a word of German, but I can just imagine the translation.
"If the groundie had only done what he was told in the first place!.... Honestly - you just can't get staff these days.......... Can't you see who I am.... with the hi-viz jacket an' all!"

Thanks for the laugh, Gorkde.

Re: Professionals in cutting Trees :)

There are well educated arorists here here in Germany that are really good but this one must have been a Guy that thought he can do this too even if it is not his job normally.... He is no arborist....

This is why I put "professional" in quotes!
