AA

I'm not sure where to start.I was trying to not jump on the bandwagon to constantly
attack you , as I have an admiration for anybody trying to make an honest living and
for you to do what you're doing at your age is admirable but,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,.




COME AWWWN ALREADY.


The sum total of your post has left me with no other option.
We all post here with the expectation of critisism from our peers.Good bad or in the middle.
So what do you expect when you come on here and try to sell yourself as a premier tree service.
I'll give you a pass for using it in your advertising ,Nobody is going to run an ad saying
''Your towns so -so start up tree service''. But it don't fly here.

We all know or have known people who exagerate but you take it to another level .

The special forces marine.[busted]

The "I get top dollar for all of my work''[busted.you took it in the rear on the last job]


The lawnmower owns skidsteer.[busted]

The self bought glass award.[busted.you only claimed it as joke afterwards]

And now Hells angels,cubans and KKK. Give us a break already.



I know you like to attempt witty comebacks to critisism.But remember there are some here
who would really like to share info with you ,myself included.I think there may be hope for you.
You seem to be hard working ,safety minded and a capable promoter of your business.
Let us help you to live up to what you promise your clients to be.

I know it would be too much to ask you to ask you to apoligise or even admit to some of your BS.
Pride can be a #####.But for Gods sake ,PLEASE ,no more.

The KKK isn't coming? What about the Cubans? Surely The Marines are gonna help?:msp_ohmy:
 
Funny he was lurking on here this morning tween 8-8:30am, I thought I would suggest a "come clean" scenario for him so this site could get back to doing what it does.........But obviously its a no go for him, I can only think he was one of those kids who liked to get beat up cause thats the only way he got any attention?

Once again I watched a steiner Vid & sit here amazed...........you have to be kidding me, to grind a stump with that thing you have to turn the front wheels side to side...........no dedicated hydraulic circuit for swing? yep that steiner does it all....AA thats just sad, that tractors attachments are for "once in a while" jobs that pop up..........not to add a profit center to a biz as you think.

Your grandchildren must like your stories & much like fairy tales it puts em to sleep, Now AA its the "red pill" or the "blue pill"....I guess we all know which you took.........cause you`re way down in the rabbit hole Alice.

Seriously...........ive meet some "different" people in this trade, But AA............WOW! Pathelogical lying drug user on a lawn mower.....LMFAO, Now right there is a reality show!


LXT..................
 
Finally got the power on here it's been out since saturday. All hell broke loose here and the phone has been ringing off the hook. I think i'm gonna have work all winter long from this storm.

I can't take anymore new clients, can't return the calls. I am not writing estimates until the job is done either. Its called a bill by then anyway. I got to get going, even I don't like getting out this early.
 
I will show my dd214. Let's see yours. The lie (in this instance) was he said he "IS STILL in the USMC". Obviously proven a straightfaced pathological lie.

I was in USMC on a 2 year hitch, was the gidon (in charge of the platoon when no DI's around), got voted by the platoon members for the free Dress Blues out of the whole platoon. Made Corporal in less than a year (very unusual) and would have made sergeant in less than a year and half but knocked out a black guy (he the racist, not me and had it coming to him....I could tell stories for hours, we had race riots in Enlisted Clubs and there were club fraggings) and became uneligible. Spent a year and a half in Nam and was discharged as a short timer when I returned.

Look, no lies here. Some people are incapable of not lieing and hence are pathological liars. Just look at how he stinks at tree work after 5 years in the business and take a guess at how good he is at everything else he lies about being good at.

It never fails, blowing your own horn never produces satisfaction unless your incapable of comprehending truth. I had years with my head up my ass and could not see myself in others eyes. The main person you as a man must be honest with is yourself and once that is mastered life starts changing for the better imo.

YEEAAAH BOIIII, WASSUP NOW Sorry, was around white kids from Iowa who think they gangsta again.

:cheers: TV, had a few older buddy's there, F-DAT! One was a doc with 1/9 in Operation Buffalo, told us some stuff that still gives me goose bumps.He made the book (Operation Buffalo, non-fiction). If ya ever read it, he is Doc Schroeder. Real good read, but hell, you may have been there! He told of the racial wars, that had to suck. That's long gone now, thank god. Have a couple brothas from the south side, chi-town that I was with at OCS. Would go anywhere, anytime for them. Couldn't imagine dealing with that and rank mixed together.

Screwed up today, should have been double of what I charged. I get into this thing and it has garbage everywhere.:dizzy: Think all the trees in the hood picked on the little ash tree and gave it all their deadwood. I don't remember it having so much to do when I looked at it. Oh well, took care of it anyway. I hate pruning ash trees! Stupid little elbow pokers everywhere! Starting to think about elbow pads, does the Dan us those? If so, can ya tell me what ya use?

Massive rain cloud on top of us, but not a drop so far. Sent the guys home, gunna be PO'ed if it doesnt rain now!
 
Oh my Jeff if you could only see some of the rooms I've entered. This place is a love in compared to many of them, a Bingo parlor of sweet old ladies.

I've been in the Hell's Angel's clubhouse during a rave, A cock fighting ranch in the Everglades with Cuban revolutionaries, I even went to a Bini Brith meeting with armed and dangerous KKK members. This is a piece of cake big guy.

Omg lol you would of never survived Texas, btw hells angels were before raves. I have been in sorted places and what I have seen is the ones being quiet are the players. The ones running their mouths are trying to beef up their short Cummings. AA at your age I would like to think you would realize all this smoke screen **** is unnecessary, I have nothing to prove I just do the next task life places before me.
 
Today I replanted 4 October Glory after I removed 2 pin oaks ... No pics dropped it in the water in the AM no camera no speaker no internet just a basic phone , no one should have to live this way :msp_scared:
 
I don't need an "out" treeclimber. I am what I am, deal with it or you may leave. I was offered a seat in the witness protection program when it was first formed and I declined, preferring to stay free and look after my own interests.

As far as fearing any bikers, or klansmen, or Cubans; consider this:

I've posted this instructive clip here before. It's still relevant. Many social groups get the idea that they are tough guys, but in reality they often find out in the end that they really aren't that bad. I'm nearly 65 years old now and most of the people who would have liked to beat the snot out of me have died of old age. maybe one of you whippersnappers would like a try, and my door is always open to come in, getting out ~ not so much.

But I've got work to do (six Locust trees) so I'll leave you now to get on with my work. For any of you who would like to continue this dialog, just put me on ignore and post something on topic ~ Like what tree work you did today.

WTH do you know about the mafia you friggin hillbilly , they wouldn't let you shine there shoes ... I mean really a movie doesn't make me say wow ... And you not so much either ... I don't raise my hands in anger to the elderly I was taught to respect my elders and you wouldn't wanna see me be disrespectful

You got it going on too huh. I'm incapable of being so positive as to think I'll have work all winter out of this, I'll take what I can get though! I'm just pricing things as usual, trying to get them. It is a godsend though, that's for sure. Hopefully enough for Stubs to fend off the flatbed this final payment winter. Lol. Gotta get moving, the power is back here too, hot shower this am finally!

First you go clean up the mess as fast as you can, custys hate messes. Then you go back after all is done and finish trimming or removing the trees...if thats not job security for ya!

Thats how I like to role, there is always the ones that still wants the estimate even after you worked for them before. I will be spending all day saturday lookin at jobs. I have to keep lining them up! Buying a house, settlement is the 25th so i'm gonna need a little extra for the winter.

Gotta say this is a nice end to the season though:msp_thumbup:

Yep. Gotta keep em happy and move on to the next (when ya can get away with it, that is). It's maddness out there, and I want as much of it as possible!! :cheers:
 
man to bad I'm not closer I have one of those chainsaw thingys and a pick up I'd even do it in the dark so they could go outta town asap!!!

LOL, I'm in Boston, and was thinking of making the trip tonight. NOT. But it sure is an easy grand for someone....
 
couldn't view it for some reason.. might be an update I need to install. What's this?

A grand to clear two down trees blocking someones driveway. Said in the add all you need is a chain saw and a pick up, and maybe 3 hours. On Hartford CL under labor gigs., located in Manchester.
 
I believe it. We're wanted everywhere, and I mean everywhere! This is the most bestest storm ever! I do feel bad for the trees though, they really got their asses handed to them on this deal!
 
Day 4 of storm cleanup. Still pulling trees off houses. May end up skipping the hartford expo to play catch up.

didn't realize how blurry the pics came out, but you get the idea.
