Ahhh the rich, I was trimming a tree away from a lamp post in Darling Point (just as snooty as Point Piper) when i got a tap on the back from a brolly wielding old tart. She wanted it left because "they didn't need any more light they already had plenty" then with the next breath asked if I could top the tall shrubs in the council park to improve her view>
She didn't appreciate the excessive quote (about the same amount that the extra view was worth).
I've also had blokes sprayed with a hose in a cherry picker bucket whilst adjacent to powerlines.
Standard response is now " listen lady/mate I didn't choose to have the tree cut down, I'm just real good at doing it
And also I have become a deft shot from heights with sawdust balls, funny stuff.......With all that money and still don't realize shyte hurts a lot more when it comes down from above
Cheers Brad
