for some reason whenever i drive past asplunduh or j musgrove around here i always slow down and yell hacks and shake my fist at them.

you know your an arborist when most blokes narrowly avoid crashes due to checking out a hot chick on the side of the road, and you nearly rear-end someone cos you were checking out a sweet tree.

you know your and arborist when you've been at work for 6 days and you cant wait to get on the net and see what everyone else on treeworld has been doing all week.

you know your an arborist when you get extremly PO'ed when some one says; " oh you do tree lopping do you?"

Lmao, I'm guilty of that one. Almost had a head on in the work truck checking out some hot assed chick on the corner, luckily my dad was behind me in the fourby and he honked so the person looked up and drove around me

one of my buddies rear ended me while i was driving the chip truck, bent the hopper and destroyed the front of the truck while staring at a nice piece of ass

i hate being called a tree topper, such poor practice and embarrassing
