welcome, no pain here. actually, this is the place you can come when life gets, uh, overfull.

thank you sir. we'd all complain after a while if it didn't get overfull. any thoughts on my lanyard query?
 
bout time you got on the Asite man.

and now my friend allow me to continue, if you will, to break your balls here at Asite and at work as well.



alright.

Welcome twp. For the most part people here have the attitude that the table is round and everyone has a right to an opinion, (just as long as it agrees with them) Seriously, there are alot of good people here, and I hope you enjoy yourself as much as I do here.
 
oldirty smackdown

breaking balls makes the world go 'round. things get weird if it gets too polite, so go ???? yourself you ????ing ????.
how were the pine removals yesterday?
 
not one tomato damaged in the garden my friend! the same cannot be said for the pines. a good day money and workwise. i think i should just pimp myself out more often for the tree work.

anyone looking for a local climber for saturdays or sundays let me know. i cant cut into my forty a week but weekends can be yours!

ask twp, he'll verify my "studness" and then tell you what i have for skills. lol

serious though, if you have weekend work and cant find a climber let me know. i cant work enough. i love the stuff.

oh yah, the bigger and nastier, the happier i'll be.

Oldirty,,,
I do not have to admit I am ugly, my wife and kids remind me everyday. LOL

I got some weekend work for you, but I don't think you would like the commute too much...Minnesota, (and I can't afford to pay travel time). Seriously 7 days a week is too many to work, but sometimes it seems not enough to catch up. But in this feast or famine business, next week I'll be scrambling to find work myself.

Take it easy there Twp, sounds like the oldirty one there might be pretty sharp, better learn what you can from him. If he's smart (which he gives every indication he is) he'll teach you what he knows, and encourage you to find sources to learn more than he can teach you.
 
studliness is a matter of opinion, but skills are a fact and oldirty's got 'em. must also comment on my own skills with a pair of felco hand snips. we were on a two day job at a big property friday and today. everything from crane removals right down to hand snipping all the shrubs. i was going like edward scissorhands on a mountain laurel when out of the blue i decided to dig the tip of the snips into the palm of my hand a squeeze the trigger. they went in real deep and i tried like hell not to let my mascara run. patched up good by the aformentioned oldirty and our foreman. true heroes. i guess stiches are in order, but i'll just keep on trucking without them. easily the most humiliating way to injure yourself, but that's always been my style. anyone else?

Of course! Not a palm but definitely a couple of fingers. Ouch!
