Great Post Graham

.

Im very interested by this as its 5 mins from my house. It is fairly poor money to start, Has anybody been through a similer set up and what is the money like when trained. Any help greatfuly received. Thanks Rob

i think wages are a bonus when you are learning, up until i was 30 i worked 7 days a week every hour god sends, thats what you do when you want something bad enough there is always a way.

i have posted mail, peeled tatties,dug cole,worked down sewers anything to get money.never got any holidays and had to pay for all my own college and courses, i think that wage and oppertunity looks amazing.

very poor money.

unfortunately this seems to be a reacurring theme. the recently advertised position of senior arborist at hilliers was upto 20g. very poor i belive for a senior position

Good opportunity. If you do go there you'll be working with a top bunch of guys. I think my boss did this trainee job about 8 years ago and now he has his own business.

dont you find the money vareys on were you live & the cost off living in that area ? climbers in london say get £450 -£600 up north its £300 - £450 max ?

wages vary all over but 80 a day before tax in my opinion is crap for a senior position. and the cost of living is pretty high in the new forest
