    Cost of benefits?

    100% would be real incentive to get the hires your looking for. I have never worked for anyone who offers 100% coverage like that, nor do I know of any company around here that does. Seems, unfortunately, unrealistic for a newer small business. Please keep us updated. Not trying to be all...

    Storm damage hacking volunteer work

    Many times we have been forced to do what we know is most likely the wrong decision. However, as you said, if there is sentimental value and your just helping out, why not let them hug their tree a little longer? Its is good to attempt to secure yourself from legal liability.

    Have seen many neighborhoods like that... Now my fight is excessive pruning, excessive thinning, lion's tailing

    Actual tree work for a change

    4700 divided by 6 hours.... 13.05 trees per minute for 6 hours (plus long lunch).... Did I read that correctly?

    Awesome! this is an "owlevator" we cobbled together to lift a baby back to momma during its branching phase. @moss , your way more involved in this stuff than I am, My co worker and I were in the right place at the right time.

    I gouged myself. Not one handing.

    client won't pay....

    Years ago, We had a guy come out with his Poulan pro, gauntlet gloves and goggles, right in the middle of our active work zone. After we shut down and asked him to step back politely, so we could finish, He argued that he helped as "part of the crew" and tried refusing a big portion of the...
