You know your a Tree Surgeon when...

[Mike Hill]

In what other line of "work" apart from professional sports do you take photos of yourself working and then race home to enlarge them and print them out or upload them to Facebook. Can you imagine a builder saying "derek get a photo of me with this wheelbarrow up the scaffold" hahahahaha

 

 

Thats true!

you no your a tree surgeon when walking home drunk from the pub you stare up at an oak around the corner from you and plan your climb, only your seeing 2 of everything!......was the hi-light of my night ahhhh i love trees too much

When you go round your brother's girlfriends house for the first time and leave her standing at the door waiting to greet you as you stand at the bottom of a lovely big oak tree in the front garden...

[Drayton tree care]

This is unreal nearly every post is true I bet to every arborist !!!! I'm not sure about the erotic dreams though !!!

[Ben Tidey]

[Dan Curtis]

.....when your missus brings home interesting bits of deadwood from holidays abroad cos she knows you so well

[BenC]

Ive just read this all and what a delightful thread . How about taking yer boots off after a hard days graft and then removing yer socks but as you do you roll them inside out to stop the chip going all over the place . Wow top thread . In some respects at times you hate the job but cant wait for tomorrow I wonder if anyones missus has made them strip off in the garden as you stink of that lovely tree smell .Was your hands in the sink and its suddenly minging . You own 10 miles of rope but oh that new stuff looks nice ££

when you have covered up a fuel/oil spill with chipping and sawdust

 

complimented someone even when you think there work/action is crap......(just so you dont have to put up with their questioning on the way home)

 

you can sharpen a saw by hugging it like your mothering the dog/or sat in the driving seat of the van/truck/4x4

 

you get the "i love big toppage" syndrome

 

you love stunt felling especialy if you have an audience

 

+ every other tree surgeon is a pikey
