I have considered getting a ged but i ain't going back to school.As for mistakes i had a job offer recently from Asplunduh that if I started out on the ground for a month then climbed for 2 months that the would give me a crew to supervise while i climbed.The only reason i haven't took it is because it is line clearance and if i do tree work which i want to do i want to be a tree surgeon and care for trees not butcher them.
Ok, it's easy to get a job like hat when you're young. When you approach retirement age, the retirement age is going to be 70+ years old. Talk to some of the 50 year old tree climbers on here about climbing at that age. See what they think.
Plan for your future. It will mean you'll have to do some things you don't want to do. Oh well. Get over it because they're important. Maybe not important to you now... but it's not about you, it's about how the rest of the world see's you and what they believe about you and how qualified you are. You may look at a HS diploma as just a piece of paper. Really, that's all it is. But lots of employers are going to want to see it.
