Two days later, and the pile of chunks is still there... no more work done.
We paved the street. Maybe he got hurt or fired. I don't know. I was moving to the next one.
I guess you guys deal with this every day. I think it is probably worse for this industry because anyone with a saw can take work away from guys and gals who are invested in doing it right.
I too thought it was interesting that it was a lawyer who presumably hired this fool to do the work. We are obviously just guessing at the arrangement, but the cliche's ring true, don't they?
For what it's worth, I heat my home with firewood primarily, and will go cut trees down for the wood. I don't advertise or anything like that, I just want to keep my kids warm in the winter.
One of the guys who works for me wanted rid of a few maples in his yard and I went to look at them. He was #####ing about the $600.00 each quotes that he had (from more than one outfit). I took one look and told him to forget it. They were snarled in the service drop and immediately over his, and his neighbors houses.
I told him six bills was cheap and he should hire pro's.
The risk and liability was punching you in the face.
I have the utmost respect for professionals who do this work well.
Although I have nothing much to contribute, I enjoy reading this forum, and learning a little.
Thanks. Jarret.
