Sawted

At least soon you'll be outside hating it in the peeing down rain..

 

Best of luck tho

Strange thing is I like rain weird I know 🌧🌧🌧

Plastering for just under three years but hate being inside and constant working in **** wet plaster it's totally **** I love the outdoors to much and was a stop gap as my mate needed a hand so helped him out really.

If did make very good money but got to where I wanted to be with it and always need a challenge too plus sometimes a change and do something you enjoy and have a passion for comes to an end and farriers are not rich at all comes with emended hard work and very very long hours but the stress levels are stupid and that ruins the job in time. I did it from 15 years old and sometimes things need to change. More to the point money is not everything to me now.

I'm just getting into it guys and defo want to climb so assume that makes me domestic to start with yeah? Sorry this is all new to me.

Thanks guys honey brothers good place to go yeah? I'm in Leicester anywhere can go to try boots you guys know?

Hi

I'm 38 plasterer looking to get into tree surgery as been an interest for me since a boy. I trained as a farrier and did that for 20years and got to the top of the industry, and have since gone on to qualify as a plasterer, but the indoors is not for me and want to get back outside. Long hours, hard work and low pay doesn't scare me as did it before and managed to make a successful business out of it by putting hard work and long hours into it. I want to do the same with tree surgery now I've applied to do some tickets in April as feel this will show I mean business but obviously they are nothing compared to experience in my eyes. I'm looking for someone to give me a shot I live in the East Midlands but travel is not a problem neither is early starts or weekends. I have a 2year old son who lives with his mum so I have him every other weekend, but given the chance I'm willi to put everything into this industry and show me keenness.

Anybody willing to give me a shot please get in touch.

Thanks Simon

Thank you for the advice I'm not set on tickets just looking what best options the trailer ticket I'm sure cos I'm old I can tow above 750kg anyway I would like to work for a small business not into big corporations just yet and long term goal set up a professional company of my own. Any other advice tips would be fab please.

0.9mm mate

Thanks for the advice mate it's things like that I want to know. Just hope to get a chance to prove my skills soon fingers crossed.

Based in the East Midlands but more than happy to travel if means get an opportunity to show what I can offer.

I'm 38 worked as a farrier for 20years self employed and now a qualified plasterer self employed again. Hard work long hours don't scare me and travelling doesn't either. Ran very successful business got to the top of the industry and needed a different challenge and always loved the outdoors and fancied tree surgery and now taking the opportunity to do it. Have a 2 year old who,lives with his mum but I have him every other weekend, other than that am prepared to work what ever hours required to get experience and learn the business.

See if someone will take you on as a brash dragger/labourer to see if you have the tenacity for the job, then build up your credentials after that, far too many in the industry with too many tickets and not enough heart or skill to do the job. Better to hire for attitude and train in the skills.

Phone around your local companies and be honest and explain your desire to do the job. Good luck, if you want it bad enough you will get it.

That's fab advice mate thank u on it now
