The Official Work Pictures Thread

Andrei, do you ever have to worry about pedestrians walking through the work area? I see it is taped off, but some people just do not know any better.
 
Many pedestrians see that I am working and avoid me. But there are also those who do not see or hear anything - they have headphones in their ears, and at the same time they look at their smartphone, not at the road. But I can see everything from above. In addition, there is a special person downstairs who disperses pedestrians.
 
My favorite idiot was one that walked onto a job site we scheduled for a Sunday when no one was supposed to be in the office building. Parking lot closed, taped off, cones and tape blocking the entrance. Chipper next to tree I am trimming, good sized incense cedar. I am up in the tree. Chipper howling. Guy can't hear me, Rob can't hear me as I watch him untie the tape, move the no parking cones and pull his car in. This was before comms.
Rob finally sees, shuts chipper down. I start scolding the guy from up the tree, he basically argues that he has work to do, he is gong to park up here but not under my trees I am trimming. One is over the damn entrance of the building. He goes in. Rob asks what to do. I had him move the truck to block the parking entrance. Reset all the tape and cones. Told him the dust from the cedar and liquid amber, that would be all over the dudes nice car, should remind the dude about his idiocy.
People are totally clueless these days.
 
I think people don't change, whether it's the early Middle Ages or even the beginning of the Iron Age. (By the way, I have read scientific articles that prove that the IQ of Stone Age people was significantly higher than that of modern people. Unfortunately, we are deteriorating due to too comfortable living conditions). Unfortunately, there are and will be idiots at all times.

Contract climbing ob for a friend.

Chaga at 1.5m. Tree was pretty tall 25+m tall and growing out of an embankment. Over property and lines. Couldn’t drop much as a bouncer may have caused some serious damage to the properties below,

Obviously I cut and chuck a bit but mostly rigged and speed lined.
