Hey Kurt. What do you think of this outfit?

I climb trees, what does "good pay" actually mean though?

[AlpineK]

Seattle Tree Preservation is a good company. I've worked for them for a couple weeks when my previous company was slow, and I'm good friends with a bunch of folks who have or do work there.

 

John H is a decent boss. I've known him for longer than I knew about the internet.

 

If you want to be a full on tree guy/chick you'll be expected to become a certified arborist. When you're just starting out plan on spending your days dragging brush, chipping, and raking unless you already have previous experience at a real tree service.

 

I won't say what the pay rate is, but you'll get paid fairly and get raises as you progress. I have 17 years of experience at this kind of job.

 

PS This is a real tree company not a bunch of tree butchers (I'm sure the butchers are probably hiring too)

Just curious (so I can pass info on to friends): is this work permanent and year round?

[AlpineK]

Typically I would say yes. Occasionally things do slow down a bit but not that often.

thanks!
