how does one go about getting a job in the logging industry?
i never worked for a logging company but do have chainsaw expeirance but nobody wants to hire someone with no logging time. so how do you get a job then? their was a job that i applied for where a logging company needed a chainsaw operator and when i called them they asked if i worked with a logging company before and when i said no they pretty much blew me off. and i found one job that was willing to train but it was 100 miles one way to travel and way to far for me. my point is why doesn't logging company's give the oppurtunity to someone like myself that loves the outdoors and to use chainsaws a chance or to train someone? i curruntly work in corrections and have had enough and am looking for a new career and logging for me would be something that i know that i would enjoy and love to do.
any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
thanks, sniper
