So why not just go up to the job site and ask for the boss?

Isn’t that showing more hustle that hanging around at a distance

 looking odd?

This is more likely to get a result than watching in saw gear, would think that was weird enough to be Scottish cleaning services!

It’s such a shame she cannot be heard over the sound of her own ovaries. I like a woman in overalls but ffs!

Hi all 

 

So let's see what lovely replies I get this time. 😉 

 

Just a quick question really about gaining experience,

 

I'll be gaining my cs30/31 tickets after xmas and in the meantime I've been asking around for any groundie/help work I can take on.

 

Im offering myself up for free as I am brand new and just greatful for the opportunity, but alot of places are asking that I have experience already.

 

How do I gain experience if I need experience to work?

 

Anything else I can do to boost my chances?

 

Or should I wait until I have my tickets so I'm a bit more useful?

 

Sidenote: knock off the 'Don't do it and the job is shit' messages, thanks👍 

 

To add:

I should have said.

 

I've emailed several big, small and one man band companies and asked in a few arb/forstry fb groups.

 

 

Just a thought, but have you tried speaking to a few folk on social media? There's quite a few female owned/led Arb businesses out there that are doing well. Maybe try and get a bit of networking going?

Think you’re living in the past a bit there mate, there’s no shortage of women in Arb these days, and some of them are doing pretty good out of it
