You know your a Tree Surgeon when...

[Mike Hill]

I thought I'd start a thread for everyone to add a little somthing to.

 

You know your a Tree Surgeon when emptying your vacume cleaner looks supprisingly like dumping a chip truck.

 

When there are chainsaw parts in the dishwasher.

 

Your mates applaude you sqeaking a chip truck through "width restrictors" at 40mph.

 

So all,lets hear yours.

You know your a tree surgeon when you get a small pay check.....

 

Actually when you realise you are a slave like ronaldo ---- idiot

you get your first huge tree rigged down without damaging anything.

..and you go that extra little bit more on an extreme limb walk just to get a proper pruning cut.

you are a tree chopper when you learn not to slip of your spikes (as much)

BORING BORING BORING!

 

 

how about,

 

you leave a trail of sawdust around the house,

 

You cant stop looking at trees when your driving around, and say to the wife / partner 'terrible work that'

 

you have erotic dreams about climbing equipment

 

you keep your car keys on a carrabiner

 

your chainsaw boots are the envy of all the local Goths in the pub

 

You spend 'quality time' on arbtalk:001_tongue:
