    tree stuff, its been real....

    I guess that I might have spoken too soon. I do have a moral compass and an obligation to do right by all accounts. I am also a business man that needs to make a certain amount of money. I do care how that money is made. I spoke too soon in the realm of saying I am in business to make...

    tree stuff, its been real....

    Good point! I tend not to really care and just take as much money from whoever is willing to pay. I don't discriminate when it comes to the services we provide....we provide them to everyone.

    tree stuff, its been real....

    Where does that ethical line get drawn? I'm in business to make money. Period. I get your point and agree with it but it still raises issues in my business brain. I don't smoke or drink. Have close family members that struggle with the addiction. One of my biggest tree customers owns several...

    tree stuff, its been real....

    Im only kidding! If the product is good, and has people willing to pay for it....the someone will pick it up. Look how long Aerial Lift of Connecticut has been out of business. You can still get whatever you need for those machines. Same will be with this saddle.

    Isa Membership Problems Enough is Enough

    I haven't thought too hard about the licensing thing.....so I am sure their will be two sides of this argument. But on first thought I think a licensing would be good for our trade. Maybe allow us to raise our prices even more. Honestly. People can sniff out bull shit. I am a certified...

    Isa Membership Problems Enough is Enough

    I would be curious to see a list of the salary's that are paid to the ISA employees. I am sure its public info. I find organizations like this start off with a good ideas and great support. Then as the money starts to flow....they pad their pockets and the services start to dwindle. Might not be...

    tree stuff, its been real....

    They say its because they are shipping items out faster than ever. Basically they stock them....and then they all sell out in a day or so....sometimes hours. Not sure that I believe this.

    Crane Crew Set Up

    Yeah....this in the wring place! But I'll reply anyway. Maybe someone can more the whole thread to the proper location....anyways. This is a big topic and each and everyone has their own idea of how a crane crew runs smoothly. My ideas are centered around my first interactions with a crane. I...

    Shelter tree website

    Now is the chance to make a good vote with your dollars!! Happy they are so close to me and things will get shipped out quick. I also like if an item is backordered it wont let you put it in your cart.

    Long duration in spikes

    My post was referring to the weight of the spikes. I tend to like a lighter spike and a heavier boot.....than the other way around!!

    Bartlett West Chester PA, Climber/Foreman

    For a leading company in this industry...that pay is pathetic. Your not going to attract good crew leaders at 18 to 28 an hour. This is 2017. I made 26 an hour as a crew leader 10 years ago!!
