You worry every time the wind blows.
You don't get polesaw neck anymore.
You almost like getting slapped by brush as it goes through the chipper.

You think your chainsaw pants are the latest fashion.

 

[marlinspiker]

your wife wont let you get undressed after work in the house. (sawdust explosion)

 

[marlinspiker]

you bought a toy chainsaw for your son who isnt even born yet!

 

[robinia]

You have old bits of climbing rope everywhere - tying up the hammock, tire swing, attached to the boat, tie downs for the roof rack, dog leash, etc.

 

[robinia]

You build arborist equipment out of Lego.

Your ringtone on your cell is a chainsaw.

Is there one available? I want it for next time I go to the library. Used to have the Tarzan yell that I'd use after the 20th heavy metal full volume ringtone in the library. It stopped the insanity everytime.

ya there is a ringtone that sounds like a husky getting warmed up. If you can't find it let me know.

Threatened with divorce if:
-any sawdust or chainsaw parts are discovered in the house.
-you mention 'that' tree again.
-mock strangers with rented u-haul trailers while backing up.
-pay attention to tree buzz instead of whatever is smoking in the oven

[RopeShield]

Instead of bining the acorns, seeds or nuts, you collect disperse and donate.

Lets all be good squirrels now!

you practice your target cuts on your kids model railway tree scapes

 

[Maui Palm & Tree Care]

it takes an entire pickup truck bed just to move your "basic" toolbox.

your constantly looking up at trees to climb and wonder if you will someday bid a job for it.

your left hand has handsaw scars

i like this one the most.

i was just doing a tower job today. all day i was wishing i had my arborist harness on and could hang off my ropes. it just doesnt feel right without a tree saddle on.

Friends and acquaintances use the word 'tree' somewhere before or after your name when addressing you.
