    I guess you can lead an arborist to some trees, but you can't make him see the forest. You are correct in that humility doesn't HAVE TO come in the form of social posting with total strangers, but given the circumstances, you may want to consider whether or not some humility HERE might go a long...

    The self-aggrandizing lack of humilty displayed doesn't help me shake it off, but I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt. Genuinely, I wish you the best of luck in your endeavours. I am sure your technical skills with trees and words will get you where you want to go, even if you don't...

    I just wanna thank you for putting words in my mouth! What I said was that "I can't shake the feeling...", and you seemed to have inferred some sense of certainty from my words where there was definitionally none. Since it seems tone is not your forté, let me be clear: Your tone reads as...

    I'll find the piece I made at some point and show you. When you dial in your settings it's quite crisp. It takes several passes to cut without melting.

    The laser cutter I used was very well exhausted, with something like a hood vent over it. The whole shebang was in a closed box with a clear lid and vented out of the roof with a strong fan. I cut 3/16" plastic with no problem and no fumes.

    Having followed Donny's saga from nearly the beginning, I can't shake the feeling that after the bad thing happened, he got deep into opiates during recovery and it got bad.

    The mental image of said prowlers is hilarious. The hunger is real.

    Paying for referrals

    I have started those conversations, but, to some degree, I also feel like those are points I should have asked about during the interview. I could have known before signing, what I was signing up for. They definitely made it clear during the interview that the main reason to hire me was to find...

    Paying for referrals

    I am trying to generate enough work that we need to hire another three guys just to keep with it. As it stands, we almost never get calls from new potential customers, as they have been very low key about their tree division for the nearly thirty years it's been in operation. I am working on...

    So, if these lead generation sites have been mostly shitty for you guys, I'm curious as to what specifically made it so? I'm gonna venture a guess and say that they almost exclusively get tire kickers looking for the lowest price, but expecting top level work? And mostly really small jobs anyway?

    That’s what I’m seeing over here too; leads that don’t seem worth it. You ever use Angi? Wondering if they’re any better?

    Paying for referrals

    I feel that desire to build some steam up fast, but a watched pot never boils. I am in a similar boat, trying to drum up new clients for a business that has never advertised in over 35 years. I was thinking about getting us on Angi and Thumbtack, but what I have seen from them so far seems to be...

    He said, "I just recognized that he was speaking the truth". The thing you gotta realize is that he can recognize the truth, and obviously not many of us can. He's just better than us, and when we start recognizing that he is speaking the truth, we'll be able to recieve of his wisdom fully...
