  1. the ability to be punctual, reliable, polite, and on a lot of jobs just purely get stuck in. Agreed...the getting stuck in is absolutely what I love
  2. Loyalty.. reliability hard work high standards and good team ethos...not worried about the climbing so much , although hate not being involved...but hope I can be contributing and not be staring as t a screen.. What you say is totally fair though
  3. I'm not a screamer ..but nothing wrong with standards ..all fair comment though
  4. AHHP Thanks for your advice. I'll save you from the grim fot .. sounds like I might fit in just need to get my head down and get on with it.. thank you for taking the time to give your thoughts
  5. Thanks jags ...I reckon I could give the sprogs a run...but then I'm not worried so much about being in the trees long term I just want to be credible...
  6. Hi Stephen I'm not a gym bunny but I wasn't in a hat line regiment. Difference is I can just keep going... despite knees and back...but what you say is totally fair. I know how how helping mates takes its toll but I'm not sure as big company will fit me either..good advice and food for thought thanks for taking the time to give your thoughts
  7. And be outside...stuck in an office with much younger people who I just can't connect with
  8. That's good to know. I do need the money and to pay the bills but I also need to do something physical
  9. Thank you for replying. I looked at doing this when I left the army but everyone said I was too old then....but I really feel it's something I want to do before the window closes
  10. Hiya folks....I am 56 and would like to swap careers again. I have cross cut and small tree felling and experience working on small trees and doing hedges. Used a cherry picker with a more experienced mate a few times. I have some work experience lined up for Mondays with company that did some work on three trees in my garden which was beyond me. Am I being naive that I can start in this line of work at my age...I am ex military left 13 years ago and am pretty fit and like hard physical work...
