Did a job with my boss last summer for a middle aged couple. made us bacon sandwiches for breakfast, bought us fish and chips for dinner, supplied us with cold orange juice and at the end of the day he gave us a bottle of beer each, we drunk them and he was offering us more, he had loads in his fridge. would of stayed for the night if my boss didnt have to drive. never come across customers as sound as that and never will again and on the flip side you get customers that dont offer you anything. they will gladly come and talk to you with a cup of tea in their hand and drink it whilst talking to you but they wont make you one. tight b******s

HAHAHAHA Now im an idiot. In my defense some people would put a comment like that on haha

Im not saying im a brilliant climber and no i havnt got the experience but i can climb and have done loads of trees within the past year, nothing too major yet though. And i dont think anybody would pay their employer money to learn lol and i paid enough to college to get my tickets
-
Thats true. Will just see how it goes tomorrow when i discuss it with him
-
So after reading all these comments it sounds like asking for 80 a day is fair Cheers
-
yea i suppose so
-
yea i will. i think that 80 is fair considering that i'm 25 ,have all the tickets to do the job, drive and pretty much work my backside off. just hope he will cos im really happy working with him ,he has taught me alot and is a really sound guy to be honest.
-
yea i thought it would be around that. Im only asking because ive asked the guy that i have been working with for about 8 months that i want 80 a day but im not sure that he wants to pay me that. we havnt really discussed it yet but we will be on monday so i just wanted to see whether what i was asking for was too much.

thanks

what is the daily rate for a self employed groundsman/climber with 1 years experience?
-
because there might be a genuine reason why he hasn't been in touch mate and now he is definatly not going to give you a chance once he sees that comment. just be patient and if he does not get in touch you just need to man up and move on.

Wakefield, west yorkshire. Why?
-
Yea i thought it would be about that but wasnt sure. Cheers for that

i give him two numbers. one for a full time college course which with funding is really cheap considering what he will get from it and one for an apprenticeship with a tree firm in his area. didn't anything come from those?

I gave you two numbers. One for the full time level 2 in arboriculture college course and one for the apprenticeship with that tree firm in your area. Didnt anything come from them mate?
