    sounds like a lot to ask................

    for that low of a pay scale.

    Might be why you're looking to replace the last guy in that position.Just a suggestion.

    I sent mpatch a PM too, see if he wants to prove he can climb with me, or get schooled in a parking lot BY me.

    anybody can type, I'm a bada$$ climber. bring it.

    he asked me for work, pussed out, and now runs his mouth. BRING IT. can't say any more.


    I'm real, are you?

    I couldn't imagine doing tree work wearing a Kevlar vest and having all my equipment chained to me.carrying a sidearm at work might be cool though.
