Is arb work hard work?

[Ian Leach]

Buy an arb trolley then no need to run simples. Do you help the groundy when finished tree or do you expect it to be all clean and tidy by the time you come down.

I really thought the running bit must have been a joke. Never mind.

You are what I call a perception merchant, as long as things look busy they must be.

 

 

I asked my guys today about running and their comments were...

Who are we running for? You, the customer, certainly not for ourselves.

How much do you intend to pay us to look like *****?

Why do you read such rubbish on that stupid forum?

 

I tend to agree with them - and I'm the one who runs the business.

 

This whole thread has been so awful its funny.

This is me having a moan! I own a small arb company and use 2 subbies one is over 50 and one is over 40 years old. The 50 year old work really well but can't manage a full weeks graft, fair enough. The 40 year old is ok.

I have tried half a dozen college "boys" and all have been utterly unless.

I do not expect them to know everything or anything. What I want them to do is sweat!

Drag more than one branch at a time.

Run back from the chipper.

Realise there is always something to do, rake up, fill up saws, clear ropes etc....

Now I can't be the only one who wants to do a good days work and get home before tea time, it's all quoted work so the sooner the job is done the sooner it's home time.

I was and still am really eager to get on and work my a$$ off.

How do you guys get on, hope you have better bloke than the ones that seem to grace my yard, rant over.

 

No wonder your 50 year old cant handle a full week if you have him running bk and forth to the chipper
