I just saw a story on the news how the USDS is bringing in more smokejumpers from out west to identify trees infected with ALB in Worcester .
Elite airborne firefighters are being shipped in from across the country to do our work for us. Even though we are more qualified, well excuse me the certified arborists are more qualified.. as well as local.
MA has more arborists than a great deal of other states and our work is being subcontracted out.
So , MA is going to be paying how many of us unemployment this winter, while its paying others ALOT more money id imagine to do OUR job?
Not to mention im sure the state is putting them up in a hotel..
ITS WRONG. Last I heard the two companies in the running for the removal contact were Dillon and Northern.. Id wager somone gets brought in to do it though since thats how it seems to work.
Im sitting here in my house in a winter coat because I cant afford heating oil quite yet. My trucks insurance is about to be cancelled, cant afford that either. Im goin to go repoint a chimney when it warms up enough for mortar, but WTF? Im a climber in training not a mason.
Im going to get the contact info for our senators and representatives, as well as anyone else who could potentially help.
Im asking for help, either from you men who are out of work, or soon to be out of work, or who know people out of work , to keep jobs that are opening up in this state from being subcontracted to some firefighters.
