Spoke to an owner operator about my career change. He wouldn’t be able to compensate me enough though comparatively to current wages/benefits. He said I may be able to get close with some of the larger companies though. We’ll see. We talked for close to an hour. He offered to teach me some climbing and rigging techniques. We’ll try to work together here and there when I can get a day here of there. That’s exciting.
I’m still trying to figure a way around the 3 yrs of documented work experience and exam my state requires to perform tree services (legitimately).
Looked at a job in the neighborhood which may be begging for a coos bay. This was a brief drive by. The part where I walk around it and stare up at it, look at the ground, look back up for 45min hasn’t happed yet🤔
