lol, yup. the next words outa my mouth were "run me up a rope please..."
the should go was to the house side where the top was weighted but I couldn't be sure of a clean fall, the will go was to the open side, with a rope.
Yeah, I played for a small college. Too time consuming and when I quit drinking (and other foolish habits) it took a lot of the fun out of that very annoying past time.

nice pictures Jeff. why a reach-all and not a tower truck? seemed like a open parking lot to pull a boom up to.
did you see the tree go down in front of you? I've always wanted to see a failure.
I got called out on one once. tree was up rooted and while I was bidding it it started slowly sliding out of the tree that it was propped in. I told the lady that I could secure it for the evening which I did! I protected her house from certain damage it would not have made the night and she had a brand new heat pump below it too!

Partial performance is a valid contract. Not a bad move despite the good will shown.

Yep, that's what we used to call tying them down when I did a lot of storm work.
Treewhiz, you should have been around here a few years ago. We had trees coming over and huge limbs dropping like bombs for three days straight. Only people that were venturing outside were treemen and the US mailmen...
And fools.
Had one fool trying to talk me into cleaning debris out of his yard while I was trying to cut people out of their homes. Had to unbury vehicles and clear driveways for people to get groceries before we could even think about taking trees off of houses, let alone clean yards. The fool was pissed when I told him that sure, I could clean his yard for $250 an hour. While he was fuming over that, the top half of his large Pecan tree fell through his little car port out back where his Harley and Mercedes Benz were parked. I handed him a card and told him to give me a call when he wanted me to mitigate his hazards.
i'm just a small time guy in south San Diego, don't get to deal with the big stuff all that much. Only been doing this for 6 years, there is still time to catch up with you guys (or maybe replace)
Jeff, i have seen your trucks ever now and than. i like your logo.
So treeewizzz, are you a legit arborist too, or another tree cop?
??????
don't know if i understand the question. I think i am a legit arborist but i have a long way to go. "tree cop" i don't get.
Working on making an appointment to take the state arborist test... and letting it dry out after parts of the state got 10" of rain since sunday.
I know I'll probably fail the first time, but thats alright. I some of these hacks I know can pass this thing, surely I'll get it eventually.
Just had a disturbing conversation with an applicant for the groundman job I'm advertizing yesterday. This guy works for possibly the biggest hack I know of. I told him "I'm not so fond of your bosses pruning practices". He says "what? where?". I said the street (think severe hatracks), and he says "oh yeah, that job, everybody gives us crap about that.. we tried to talk the guy out of it and explain that it was bad for the trees, bleh, bleh, bleh". But its what the customer wanted". Then he says "so and so is a licensed arborist and everything, he's been doing treework for four years. Are you licenced?". I said "not yet, but I have been doing treework for more than 20 years. I wouldn't have done that job - and I definitely wouldn't put my sign in the middle of it (and left it there)". lol.
So you see, its like I said: it takes more than a piece of paper to make an arborist. This is just so some of you know where I'm coming from when I say that. These things aint worth the paper they're printed on with guys like this out there imho.
