I suppose I conduct the "work" of an arborist, but I haven't been familiar with the supposed fact that if you work with "live trees" you can call yourself an arborist without being cert'd. That one just doesn't strike me so well, so I don't use it as a trump card, as I'm certain other's do just to elevate their position in the overall scheme of things. I'd rather be honest than lie through my teeth just to obtain contracts. |
I am pretty certain, that all have answered honestly. Therrin, don't forget that home-owners can buy a chainsaw and mutilate their trees also and not just the qualified. I have a brochure that I hand out quite regular. On it is a picture as to why 'I' don't top and an explanation to back that up. I'm sure, like others here, that it would be pretty demeaning to their companies, that are mostly advertised on the
WWW and have a link to this forum, that anybody doing their home-work before hiring a 'Tree Feller/Fella' would be able to see the comments made here too.
The whole project that I am undertaking is to have TOPPING banned. And that means that no one is allowed to do it....
