Good question. I was wondering the same thing.
We are a commercial tree company in SoFlo.
Brush Dragger- $9.00- $11.00
CDL Driver/ Equip Op.- $12.00- $14.00
Bad ass groundsman with CDL that is steeped in experience- up to $16-18
(haven't met one yet)
Bucket Baby or Climber- $14-16
Certified Arborist/ Climber- $16-18
Crew leader- up to $18
Cert. Arborist Crew Leader- $18-22
Fair Enough?
I am a little confused with this post??? you have a job title & position known as Brush Dragger???? a bad azz ground man can make as much as a crew leader/climber that is certified? Wow....there some priority issues in your company!!
usually a groundpersons duties involve dragging brush...why two different job titles & I imagine with the Latino population being high in Florida that is why the wages are what you have posted.
Fair Enough you ask.....................NO! look at you wages per classification, thats terrible!!!
LXT.............

Wow am I paying too much? My ground guys are both fire fighters EMT, have driver license, non smoker, own homes, own good transportation. In general are very responsible, know thier job and mine to be honest. Usualy no room to slip up, we all work together with NO daycare issues on the job!!oke:
The question is stupid! None of your business how we pay. Depends where you live and what your market target is, what type of guys you hire, and your perception of a customer base. Sounds like you need an Operations Manager! He will tell you what to do. A good Ops guy will make you Money.
A good owner listens to his Ops guy- like me. My owner listens! Best owner I have known in 30 years and I say what you get paid.

Coming across a prick is always a good thing. I bet your underlings love the I'm superior attitude.
Aw, those Mexicans don't understand what he is talking about half the time probably.
