Which side is that mate? I have a pretty good idea of your level of experience ,judging by the way you prioritize something that isnt really of much relevance in general. We are underpaid in some areas because most of the work we do is pretty easy and the bar to entry into the self employment is minor. Plus the fact that colleges churn out new "climbers" many of whom start out for themselves hoovering up the easy money. Been like this in the UK for ages and we are seeing more of it in Scandi now too.

Straight up mate,you sound like half the problem in this industry. Over-thinking ,inexperienced, over equipment climbers trying to find reasons not to get the job done. The likelihood of injuring yourself aloft,to such an extent as you cannot self rescue is vanishingly low. So low in fact that refusing a job on the basis of there not being a rescue climber onsite is pretty pathetic.

If you think you need a rescue climber,should you really be climbing in the first place?

It depends on how you feel about it yourself. Probably the worst reputation you can get as a contract climber,is that of being a prima-Donna though. I would have done the job because honest to God, I have never expected to have a rescue climber on site.

Sounds like your on the right track. Keep positive and don't give up. Keep us posted on how you get on.

Looks like your holding the gun a bit too far away from the metal as well.

What an opportunity!

Type something in a language you understand please.

Do you find reading English difficult? Anyway. @corey Bailey There is a real shortage of new starts with the right attitude ,sounds like you have that side sorted as well as the right tickets. The next bit is getting what you have already in front of someone who has a vacancy. By calling people up you get in front because alot of big firms will have someone working out their notice. Big firms with council contracts will have alot of repetitive climbing. Reductions/ lifts etc ,that's the way in to get your skills up. Sure you can go into a domestic arb company but your seriously going to play second fiddle most of the time. Good luck let us know how you get on.

Absolute load of cobblers. Do keep your negative opinions to yourself. This bloke is trying to make a go of it and your casting aspersions based upon your own scant experience. I guess you would never tell an employer you had say your truck licence? Would you just surprise them by turning up in a truck one day ?

All professional tree top loggers agree that chainsaw of the most importance and reliability can be effectively utilised in the arboriculture.

The MS020 was highly praised amongst professional tree loggers loudly from the tree tops in countries afar.

This is a good thing in my opinion . Part of a visa application is a character assessment. They will usually ask the question " do you have a criminal record" as well as ask for Say your past 5 employers as well as qualifications. The process takes anywhere from a couple of weeks to a few months,you might even have to pitch up at the embassy for an interview ( America I did have to). So in short it's s protection for their nation as well as yourself. Going from experience employing young blokes from the UK,a bit more of a process than just jumping on a flight and after landing being stunned that everything is different might have weeded out the dreamers and saved both parties huge hassel?

Democracy I'm afraid old Bean.

Plenty of other countries to go too. Scandi ( all four) Aus NZ Canada That's more than most will ever do. As for the " right" to work in other Countries? I have never has that " right" coming from NZ. So I had to apply for a visa . Now they do too.. it's not hard or expensive.

Good luck mate. Try calling all the big firms in your area and ask to speak to whoever is in charge of recruiting . Emails are easy to ignore.

Some Jensens have a dog clutch which disengaged the cutting disc from the drive belts. My 340 had a dry dog clutch. On stuff like wet ones the lowest hole is the drain and then rotate the same hole to 3 o'clock and fill to level. Confirm that's the case from catching the oil and refilling with the same amount.

Work out how much you want to make per anum and devide that by how many hours you want to work. Then apply that formula to each job you look at,plus the hourly rate that your company costs to run. How much you want to charge is up to you,how much you actually get is up to the customer.

I wear gloves on my feet. Because I am a naughty little Monkey. Seriously , aspiring Tree Woman. You are a bit too snappy to have a career in this game frankly.

Ffs I hope at least he is wearing Hugo Boss in order to make up for that sloppy salute.

I don't think he knows what day it is honestly. The level of fervent denial amongst his supporters regarding his mental decline is astounding.

That cable has" spun with the lay" of the rope. Most cable is RHOL right hand ordinary lay which means all wires and strands apart from the core twist to the right . That's called " Pig tailing". So in order to fix it you cut it off and then wind on the cable under load allowing the cable to twist in order to get the life out of it. Make sure that when you wind it on under load each wrap is tight on the drum,against the previous wrap. This is called " fleeting". Instead of using a choker,use a length of chain and a hook or your going to be continually cutting the pig tails off the winch rope.

Yes there are private schools in Scandinavia. However the very richest send their kids to CH or France. The Norwegian prime minister, a multi millionaire, sends his kids to this one.Curiously the same School as the former Norwegian prime minister went to. Oslo Waldorf School (Norwegian: Rudolf Steinerskolen i Oslo) is a Waldorf school located in the Vestre Holmen area in the Vestre Aker district of West End Oslo, Norway. It is an integrated primary, middle and high school with around 550 pupils. Founded in 1926, it is one of the oldest Waldorf schools worldwide. The school is an independent non-profit foundation, receives government funding and is officially recognized under the Private School Act as equivalent to public schools, its diplomas qualifying for entry into higher education and other schools. It is a member of the Norwegian Association of Waldorf Schools. Many of its alumni have been noted in the arts, politics and other areas of society, and include the former NATO secretary-general and prime minister Jens Stoltenberg.[1]

Its often the case when someone hears a response that they didnt want to hear. I get it frequently when people ask for a tree report and I recommend felling.
