Hey guy, what's going on!?
You sitting on a tailgate somewhere drinking Pepsi, spanking, and shouting out work harder you mfers. That's what I pay you for. Wipe off the puke from your chin and get at it?

We had job scheduled in Edgewood today and when we showed up the people next door were on vacation and parked their car under the elm that was flagged to be removed.

Some people are special..real special...

I hate heat and humidity. I’d rather work in a snowstorm with a Arborwear double thick hoodie and Carhartt bibs on.

The 40 degree days we have here are my favorite to work in.

But I love when there's no leaves on the trees.

Ima say maybe 50-60…my hands and feet get cold easy. It’s 110 with a low of 80 now. Looks like a real good dyno chart.

Find the spare key on the frame rail, move the car, leave a window open, and shove the chipper's sprayer right in there!

Fellas...seriously..not having health insurance and you guys helping me pay this off is amazing.

Physical therapy is expensive...real expensive...

I hear you on the insurance thing my man. Self employment is a wonderful thing isn’t it?

I can understand. For some that don't know or are on the fence about insurance my buddy was in the hospital one day with covid and had a bunch of testing due to low potassium and he said it cost him $19,000. No insurance, ouch!

On Friday, temps are supposed to go up more.
I hate the summer!

Firstly- @sawmikaze Get well soon man. Not 2 weeks after this thread opened I gave myself a lumbar strain throwing brush over a fence. I'm not remotely in your position in terms of pain or duration of downtime, but it sucks nonetheless.

Secondly- weird place to introduce myself, I've been lurking for quite some time and have had remarkably helpful interactions with @Mastermind, @huskihl,@drf256, @Miller Mod Saws, @166, @cuttinscott,@spencerpaving and I'm sorry if i left anyone else off that. Likely, you dont remember me, no biggy. Appreciate all the input you've given me as I've launched a career change and shifted from flying a desk to becoming an arborist, as @sawmikaze is. So i really feel his pain here. I'm happy to have donated, and hope i can chip in a bit more as soon as I can. Donated as Vivek Sureddi, ya'll can call me V. I live in Syracuse, hello to fellow CNY members. I've learned an incredible amount here, and it has singularly led to part of why the ownership of the tree service i work for has fast tracked my growth, as i've taken on responsibility for equipment maintenance using info so readily shared around here. Thanks for helping me, and I hope to be able to help other's in the future. I guess i should probably start participating in discussions haha. Happy 4th all!

No kidding. I have learned how you, me, we, or anybody, can sometimes have a profound affect on somebody’s life, and we may never know it. It can be good or bad. Glad to know it was good for V!!!

Swap out that puss beer for an Iron is about the only difference.
