British columbia felling job

[slowp]

What's the song?

I'm sick of settin chokers in this dog gone rain...

It's a beauty of country when the fog clears. That's what makes us stay here, plus some of us do better in cool weather. My favorite thing, and it would also be true for Beautiful British Columbia, is that if you are sick of the rain, or want a change, hop into the car and drive an hour or two and you'll be either in a wetter climate, or a desert, depending on which way you go.

If your heart is in it you can make it happen. look at work requirements first- work visa and stuff, US doesn't need any certifications but you'd still have to be legal, no real business is going to pay under the table. Huge liability in a dangerous line of work.

I'm and east side pro, here we have 7.5 months of ideal, 1.5 months of too cold, and 2.5 months of too hot

I cut everything I haul to the mill with a saw, no machines just yet. Now iv been in the woods since I was 13, I'm 21 now, and that doesn't mean a darn thing!! I worked with ROW company as a contract feller. I brought my own saws because the poulan and echo chainsaws didn't feel right to me. I was 1 of 5 other fellers working this job in central MS. These guys claimed to be professionals and would fight you over their Experience. I used a humbolt notch once. Tree went down perfect, they wrote me up for unsafe work ethnics. So I used a conventional notch the rest of my tenure there. My point is, even if I do become certified and a "professional" feller. I pray to god nobody knows but me!! I don't think I'd want that much hype behind my name and idiots trying to compete with me and lie to the bosses to get me gone hahaha!!

I think certification can be alot of BS. Ive seen newly certified BC fallers who cant file their own chain, let alone deal with a falling problem. And talk about cocky! Alot of them dont last long. Bottom line- it's either in your blood or it's not.

OOOON THE COOOOVVVER OF THE WEST COOOAST LOOOGGERRRR

We got some ...in eeeevery town,
blue n brown eeeeyed 'groooupies'
that keep us companyyy ..on our stayyyy
We can have.. alllll the friendssss.. that money can buy
then we'll be on our wayyyy

To cut more trees
off a springboard or our knees
and liiiive to see another dayyyy

We have very strong willssss
Legislated with too many billsss
To try teach us a 'safer' way

OOOOOON THE COOOOVERR OF THE WEST COAST LOOOGGERRR

Not bad, but you forgot one thing...

True, we have strong wills
Legislated by too damn many bills
They try to teach a safer way
But "out of camp" we need to play....

That's what they pay us for
We make the money then we score
Fast women, wine, or bag a "dime"
A faller's need is killing time....
