I’m a electrician, one of my biggest pet peeve was the journeyman belittling the apprentices!! That was never allowed on my jobs! The other thing the journeymen at the end of the day, had to clean up the job site same as the apprentices!

Seriously I know

In the snow too! 👍👍

Haha same

I thought he like went to the store and bought some cookies for the customer

Instead of saying “no problem” when the customers say “thank you”, try out saying “oh no, thank you, we appreciate your business”. Because it damn sure better not be a problem when they have chosen to pay your wages! 😉😉😉

@@Itstheoutputs ok I'll remember that...no problem 👍

@@Itstheoutputs Clients don't pay these guys wages. Their company does. And for the sweat, life and limb given; said wages won't buy the house this tree fell on. So go ahead and give that Lord/Serf business a rest, buddy because Mr. Misters like this need these guys a lot more than they need him.

On average beards grow about a half inch a month, mine has been right on that average for almost 2 years now, it's a long one for sure...

I can't grow a beard for anything, it really does come in all patchy. My mustache won't connect to my excuse of a goatee.

@@Dager004 I could never grow one when I was younger, I'll be 58 in May and this is my first ever beard, it's just about a foot long if I pull the hair straight out from anywhere on my face, neck or sideburns...

It’s not practical and really itchy

I would love a beard like that. I have tried growing mine twice and about the year mark I think I look to much like a HOBO and eventually shave it off. I think right now I am on my 3rd - 1 year attempt due to covid, maybe ill let it go for two years and see what comes of it. Some people can grow a bad ass beard and others cant. Unfortunately I think I am in the "cant" category.

His beard gets caught in a zipper, I hope he has better luck with a chainsaw...

Seriously that seemed like a good dude.

Seriously I think they will. Had a tree hit my house last year. They covered it.

did your rates go up?

@@DigitalIP no

I might be wrong, but I think insurance companies treat live trees as "act of God" and pay. but might not pay if the tree was dead. Correct me if wrong.

I cringed the whole time. It was very high in the front, with cars to land on. Not good.

Beards, are you English?

Interesting saying if you think about it. " you saved my ass" wonder where that comes from.

I’m Irish, and I don’t think I could handle that drinking game!

@@jhuntley575 Prolly from the animal jackass. It used to be a beast of heavy burden and if you lost your ass, man, that’s bad.

Seriously though

On a snow packed roof. Very dangerous. 😱

Wouldn't have been hard for them to wear a harness and put an anchor in, crazy to walk on snowy roof like that as shown when he fell!

"just cut the damn tree!"

I have been an arborist since the '80s. But I never had a snowy job like that!! Good work!

It looked like there was nothing wrong with the blue tarp that was already on there.

Alright Sally

Very true, lots of times ladders will sink into soft dirt or slide a bit left or right and if you don't have a couple rungs about the edge you can take a ride easily. That's not a safety Sally thing, I've been roofing for a long time and it's a very good thing to do. Also, working on an icy, damaged roof without being tied off is not the best idea.

@@Suitednzooted11 I'm subscribed and admire your work and attention to detail. I'm also a former OSHA compliance officer that is keeping up with tree work and the laws. OSHA will see the improper ladder use and icy roof issue as IDLH (immediate danger to life and health). They would site under the 1910 standards and that could put a "serious Citation" on the company record. I helping defend a company here in NC this morning at 9am and this guy did everything right but his ground man was killed this past Sept. Not doing the same operation as yours but painful to go through for everyone involved. Stay safe.

A ladder standoff is cheap insurance 👍

this, but 3-5 rungs above roof line, 3 feet minimum

And don't buy anything that has the end of the shaft painted. It's a cover-up of bad grain direction.

Good point. This could have been a tragedy.

I hope you realize that's likely from the 1980's, judging by the front clip. Being on the west coast, unless by the ocean, cars like it still ply our roads here semi regularly. I even see some 70's imports like 75-76 Toyotas on the rare occasion, even the old Datsun B210's while I commuted for 2 years, again survivors, but daily driven.

it seems so obvious once he says it, but i never would have thought about it either.

@@radred609 some fungi is parasitic and will actually kill your tree. Other fungi usually just breaks down dead plants and wood. Insides of most trees are non conductive dead tissue, some species have tanins, lignin and heartwood thats is more decay resistant then other trees. Some fungi is living in the organic layer of your soil or grass and isn't a problem (lawn more mushrooms) so identifying the fungus or fruiting structure is important. Keep mulch away from the trunk and have a clear trunk flare, avoid root damage and excess water pooling.

hurt

I picked up on that too but I considered it a warning that there MAY be a problem.

I'm East Coast, and the guys I get for tree work are excellent! I have been lucky. Both guys I get are in the business but not the only business.

Where do you live if you don’t mind me asking?
