Experienced Timber Cutter required...

[Sam Thompson]

It's £5/metre and that's that. If you are a human harvester then day rate takes over. Forestry aint charitable I'm afraid.

 

Nice one.

 

Fine by me

Thanks for all the PMs!

 

Old thread by now and suddenly loads of enquiries! Word must be getting around that I pay well

 

Actually I don't. This is production, production, production and no trimmings. It's £5/metre and that's that. If you are a human harvester then day rate takes over. Forestry aint charitable I'm afraid.

 

Nice one.

 

 

Why????????

Why????????

 

Cos I aint got the reserve to pay one man or woman £500 a day.

 

One particular individual (a member on here) cut well over average a day and took day rate. But he'll get a very nice bonus at the end.

So do you just defer the payment of whats due, above the day rate, till you have got paid??
