Even got a fancy little pm from him
Yes, I asked if you had any more useless **** to say, I'm ready to reply.
Unfortunately you don't want to play, took your ball and went home. You're no fun. I'll let this one pass or I'll be attacked for being "thin skinned". LOL!
However, have more **** to say, a ****-storm will come upon you like I've expressed before for those who choose to attack me. Anyway, be careful in the tree world we live in, as it's a dangerous place so keep your wits about you at all times.

Good post. I'm in a small pond with a lot of big fish.. with sharp teeth. I've been doing good (dare I say above average) work on my own for 17 or 18 years now. Its still a total struggle. I mean I'm far from perfect, but its still a ***** trying to stay busy enough.
I think some of these younger guys are just way too optimistic. I mean its natural, when you're a wide eyed pup starting out and all, but just saying it might not be as easy as some people seem to think. At least from my experience.

I'm guessing you haven't been told to just shut the **** up enough in your life
A few times by an ******* exactly like yourself, but none of them stepped up when I said "Make me." Then the drunks all got hurt and the so called tough guys. To me you're just a *****(Imagine Strong Languanged Degrading Word) looking to start something. No one needed to see your pathetic reply coming and saying ****. I honestly pity you that you don't have anything better to do, but to start trouble. Since one of the several things I do here, offer advice and reply to people's questions looking for help, I'll continue with that notion and I suggest you to get some help, therapy of sorts.

If that's your **** storm I'm fine with it! Not trying to start anything really just didn't see the need for you to jump down guys throat because of the way he worded his post. Especially the way you word some of yours. I'm out, rock-on
I just always suspect the powers that be are behind some of these jokers.. you know, trying to boost ratings/liven things up. I could be wrong, but just my gut feeling. I mean after all, most of the good members are already banned, or have lost interest. Just thinking out loud here.
CON having to deal with dumbass employees that you shouldn't have to babysit all of the time but have to. Some days he's smart and some days he's just as dumb as he is smart the day earlier. Give him a list of lots to plow with addresses included and he misses two of them. Or send him out to do three easy 15 foot tall pine trees to drop, chip, and rake the damn area like we do every time, just do everything but rake now I have to clean up the rankings with four inches of snow on it too. It sure would have been easier when the chip truck was there ten feet away.

Thanks for the
I will give you one thing Toddppm, I understand you "thought" I was getting on his case, when In fact it was my way of saying NO ONE should belittle themselves. I see too often people saying they're not good at that or they are terrible at this... or they are the worst at etc, etc. I don't like seeing "We are our own worst enemies", when I teach "We are are own best friend". Other than that, you started this and this is how it came to be. None the less, you're a fellow tree guy, so no matter how much I don't like saying this in regards to you, I have to respect the brothers of the wood. So you do what you feel what makes you feel good bro.
EDIT: But hey, after further review, I did NOTHING to provoke at attack from an a-hole like you, so don't take what I say too far because I don't like your kind.

Excellent question. Nothing like staying on point!

You get to pay all the bills, organise and equip all the jobs (which just magically appear) with all the necessaries and then collect all the profits with which you have to pay all the bills, organise and equip all the jobs with all the necessaries and then collect all the profits with which you have to pay all the bills....

I swapped an incompetent boss for the worst, badly paying slave driver boss I could have ever imagined.
Found out the SOB has been sleeping with my wife to!
Ah self employment.
Hours are crap, pay is often low for the hours and stress put in but at least its all yours. You get to buy the gear you want working for you only to find that you almost start working for the gear.
Wouldnt swap it for the world

Sounds like you made out pretty good, got rid of a crappy boss and a cheating wife.
