So, my company has been dead for a couple weeks now. Had a few calls, gave a few estimates, but no real work. Kevin says that a company he used to work for in Indy is in need of some help. Small company ISA certified arborist, pay is decent, guys not an ***hole, so why not bills gotta get paid right? The last thing I want to do is call my old boss and go back to lawn care, and im nutz if I think the ol lady will let me go back to bouncing at the strip club... So been in indy the last week playing groundie I mean not really all that different then working for myself unless its a small tree that Kevin and I thought I could do and not destroy anything...lol But guys got a nasty chipper and chip truck. His current bucket truck is down, but he is buying a new rear mount, the company that he is buying it through has been letting him demo a different model because thats all they had in I guess. It goes back Monday so until the new one comes in its all climbing work. Really im just glad to be working for a decent person who appreciates hard work, and still be working with trees, saws, ropes, and a chipper. He said he was really happy with Kevin and I as a team, and I think we may have found a new home when business is slow on our end. Its a little different working for this guy, hes all about production. Safe production, but not a whole lot of time for pics, and mostly 10-12 hour days... All in all it was a beautiful brisk and cool week in Indiana, wonderful weather to be working with trees. I can honestly say I love my job, working for myself, or Darin.
