Love all of the different jobs I do...

Tree work. Public relations work, rehab type work. Charity fundraising and business development.

Despite the fact it can be hard work, physically and mentally demanding, I wouldn't want to swap it with anything else.

Must be an adrenaline addiction, cuz I love ridin 100+ hp street bikes, skiing n motoX better, but climbin trees n riggin em down's much safer, n pays far better IME.

Yep I love my job, love it even more now I've set up by myself. If I won the lottery I'd by some big kit and still climb. It's not a job it's a hobby. There are some crap days but no matter what job you are in you have good and bad days. Wouldn't look back.

My work is my passion. I was presented with an opportunity to make and sell my products and travel the world meeting people willing to work smarter instead of harder. Really has been a wonderful life and work experience.

I've thought about it a bit and I'll elaborate.

 

Climbing, felling, grinding, all that stuff I've been doing for a long time. It's ok, can be fun but it's all a bit routine now.

 

What I really enjoy is the business, going out on a Saturday afternoon, pricing a half dozen or so jobs. Chatting with a new client, listening and discussing with them what (I think!) they want.

Getting the OK, doing the job using all the machinery then driving home, leaving a happy client who has presented me with a nice big cheque.

That still gives me a buzz.
