Its something clients are asking for now . To be fair most other qualifications such as machinery operations ect require refresher or resits . With my assessors head on and not contractors I might run some refresher courses on the Devon Somerset border this summer if there is enough interest . I've just got to get some spiking poles set up and I'm good to go .

If people don't like the wages learn to type and leave the industry . All this talk of everyone else getting all this money is as bad as farmers . I've lads on decent money leave because they can get double elsewhere just to bounce around from job to job for years after . Usually the ones with this talk aren't even a week in hand with payments and hassling for payment within minutes of finishing the job . If I could lay bricks maybe I would but I know it wouldn't be straight and I would want to live in a house I'd built as I've not the eye for it . I've enjoyed tree work and couldn't imagine doing anything else . As for a short career as a subbie climber I agree but it longer than it was . A lot of the big stuff is done mechanically and lifting equipment with avant and diggers makes bigger work just fun now.

Exactly the sort of money my subbies are getting , I supply the saws and fuel as I'm bored of lads turning up with broken saws so I think they are doing pretty well . On this there are those that completely take the piss for this type of return also .

Housing for youngsters is terrifying , the rental market round here is probably the same as the rest of the country . Its never been so easy being in arb and living in the countryside finding accommodation. New builds are awful and a single person is pretty much priced out of the market . I've done some domestic works at estate type properties and they have empty cottages which I just don't understand .

Company directors legal responsibility for debt.
steve@black replied to steve@black's topic in Business Management
The annoying thing I questioned their ability to pay when the spec on the job changed I had promises it was all good , my advise when working for a recently formed company get a written directors guarantee. It will be interesting to see what the debts are as they were only trading a few years ,my accountant has said 60 k to hmrc which must mean they made alot surely . -

The company in question here have now gone into voluntary liquidation . It seems to me things are set up to help people in debt and of course wriggle out of it than those poor folks who have grafted for the money . -

What package do employees get?
steve@black replied to TREES.SERVICES's topic in Training & education
The local utility company i believe insist employees provide their own saws . This I understand from a large company you could just imagine the loss and damage . There is a weekly payment so not a bad way to own a saw for weekenders . -

Company directors legal responsibility for debt.
steve@black replied to steve@black's topic in Business Management
That is a funny video mate I should contact him . Retired climber you're right I can't get blood out of a stone but this company has some serious backing so it will be interesting how far they will let it fall . I can't believe there is no issues for directors . Surely if they are made to go bankrupt it would affect further business .I am asked if this has ever happened when getting finance or insurance ect . Is it a question wit no real consequence? -

Way too much for small claims , I will follow it until they are shut down if I have to . Every now and again you get a kick in the knackers like this and it just makes you a little harder nosed . -
I've recently had to take legal action against a limited company for a debt . They have not disputed they owe the debt but I'm getting g fobbed off left right and center so official it has to be . One of the directors of the company has just resigned and I am guessing to let the other take the responsibility of the debt . Because this is a limited company is this OK and he can just wash his hands of it and move on . Am I right to think this ?

Due to a couple of lads taking some time out for personal reasons I am on the look out for some more help . I have full or regular part time work with mostly commercial tree work and site clearance work . This may require a some nights away although these are normally covered . Higher than average pay for the area for the right people . Usual quals required .
