  2. Thanks Tommer9.. and as it happens I have just been offered a job on £27.5k. All being well i should start next week... Thanks to all the great ppl who have given constructive comments and votes of confidence And to all those ppl out there that have knocked me for refusing shitty wages good luck and keep paying those bills on your £50 per day..

    tree work

    I used to work for a guy in brentwood.. try him.. montane forestry... google it..!! Good luck..!!!
  5. any idea where to start looking mate... iv looked into rope access courses before but it seems very hard to get into...

  6. WELL SAID.... there should be more out there with your view...
  7. Well.. if you dont set your goals high your guna achieve nothing.. is all i can say..
  8. With all due respect a BSc is a knowledge thing.. not an ability rating..
  9. Thanks to all who commented.. there been some good constructive comments.. and some silly ones to entertain us all.. Thanks guys..!!!
  10. Frank i think your starting to get arsey arent you.... if you knock a job off early then you move onto another job which means your getting through the jobs quicker and making your money faster.. its not rocket science..
  11. Im not desperate for wages mate.. i just wana work for one company and be paid what im worth
  12. retrospectivly.. I have been an idiot.. I have moved from company to company trying to gain experience of tree work from different angles powerlines - railways = domestic... it has helped me to become the tree surgeon i am now but.. however i have had some really good jobs and i probably should have stayed put...
  13. Tried them.. they not got enough work... they have promised to call me when something comes up tho..
  14. My ability is worth far more than £50 a day.. If i go and work for these desperate wages i wont be taken seriously.. Thats just how it is.. I want to move forwards not backwards and if being stubborn is the only way then stubborn it is..
  15. Yeah thats fair enough mate and very true.. im just trying to sell my ability..
  16. These ppl... are they pretty new to the trade 5yrs or less.. iv got 11yrs under my belt.. i have a lot of experience to bring with me to any employer.. plus i am a very fast climber.. obviously i cant prove that on a wall post.. the last guy i did a trial for, i got down out of the first tree i reduced for him and he said to me wow your worth your wait in gold you mate.. ill never forget that.. shame he didnt want to pay for the gold either.. where are you mick? dya want me to do a days trial for you?
  17. im working for a few differant ppl.. i take between £80 - £100 per day, but i dont wana be organising who im working for from day to day seriously mate £50 is nothing,, this is exactly the reason why us good, experienced climbers cant find well paid work
  18. where are you based mate? what exactly are you looking for? How much are you paying? PM me if you like..!!!
  19. Fair play to ya frank... You go work for your £50 a day... I wouldnt get out of bed for it mate... that wont even pay the bills..
  20. Mozza.. i dont think ppl will appreciate you calling us all unskilled.. we are extremely skilled and and our jobs are very very dangerous.. as you should know.. a lack of concentration in our trade could result in loss of life... hence insurance premiums being so high..
  21. i know plumbers and joiners and other people in silly (non-dangerous) trades who earn plenty of cash.. £150 per day on the books is an easy achievement... why is our trade paid the way it is... Obviously there are too many people learning the trade and are willing to work for peanuts... Tesco's workers earn as much as most climbers... wheres the fairness in that.. Maybe i should change my trade instead of being made a fool of by the newbies and the greedy employers..!!!!
