hello, my name is marc powell, this seems like a very interesting place to be asking about a job soi figured id give it a shot

i am currently foreman/ lead climber at ryan bansky expert tree service and have been for over 6 months now. he is a decent enough guy and pays me on time but i am very underpaid for what i do, i am experienced in almost all aspects of tree care including

tree pruning/ dead wooding, removals, shrub pruning and relocating, cableing and bracing,

i am also experienced in stihl chainsaw maintenece (just about any problem you could have with them), chipper maintenence.

i also have first aid/cpr certification and ehap certification and am working on obtaining my cdl class b drivers licence

i am experienced with a grcs rigging system, bucket work and know my way around a tractor as well (this is what i am currently using with the company i am with now)

i am looking for an employer who is well trained and willing to teach me all that can be teached. i am more than willing to learn. i am also currently working year round and hope to continue to do so and i am accustomed to workin 10-11 hour days/ i want a job that i can call home til i hang up the saddle and move away to the retirement home in the sky

currently i am making 18 dollars and hour, with medical benefits. i am payed 20 hours over/ 20 hours under the table. im hoping to be put on the books with a good salary so that i can start a family and finally buy a house and have credit.

i live in the south jersey area but i am willing to relocate if the offer is tempting enough, i own all of my own gear including ropes and chainsaws and am fluent with all current rigging and climbing techniques.

for any more info or questions please feel free to message me or email me at expelledbmx@gmail.com thank you for your time
 
Familytree, best to luck with you. I hope you find what your looking for. Hey 8733, what would you consider as the right amount of pay and benefits if you had 10+ years as foreman and 15+ climbing and all the above mentioned.
 
experience doesnt always make the best climber, seeing that most of the "experienced" climbers around here are less than reliable and out of touch all together with the tree community and its practices, but i understand what you mean but if im getting more work done in less time with no set backs than why am i to be payed less for taking more time to learn?
 
They Might Be Monkeys! Texas Tree & Land co. Opperated by MySelf and Keith Babberney is looking for someone who wants to be a company man, Someone looking for a career spot. They say that Austin is the Mecca of Texas. We would make it worth while for the right person to come out for a vist and see if it was a good match. - Nevic
 
Bottom line is that in spite of the skills we know we either have, or are aspiring to develop, the quest for over 100K as a production arborist (even crew leaders) is a bit extravagant. Come on now.

Owning (or partnershipping) the business is one thing, clearing what an MD clears after five years in practice is wishful thinking at best. Geez, what's with greed?

I dont see anything wrong with the idea. We just need to continue educating the consumer why we are worth what the MD is.
 
I tell clients that we are just like doctors, but better. We have to figure out what is wrong with the patient without that patient telling us anything. Although, we can also make money if the patient dies.
