Tornado damaged trees are trouble! Assume the worst in everything.


I have also received OSHA -approved training in disaster situations, and have a little card that says I am certified.


That training was a joke. More harmful than helpful. A few hours of class on how to operate a chainsaw, and 45 minutes of operation and/or observing others.


I would like to get approved to teach such classes and I would be sure and tell everyone that If you’ve had no other training or experience, you now have just enough info to be even more dangerous than you were before. Now go get some real training and if someone at a disaster site tells you you’re doing it wrong, then stop what you’re doing and let a skilled person do it.
