    I had a model older than this one that I love. My sister has difficulty with tools that are too heavy and she actually loved mine and found it easy to use ruclips.net/user/postUgkx_rBCFuDW1zD6blTGhLkvAkxU657uR_lG . This is a newer model but was even lighter which she really appreciates. She enjoys it and I no longer have to go to her house to trim as she can handle it fine. Haven't used it enough to comment on the battery life but lithium batteries last longer than the old style. Being cordless makes it easy to trim the far edges of the property. The entire yard can be trimmed with one charged battery.

    I work with my dad in his landscaping business. I used to hate it when I was younger cause I thought it was tough work, but after growing up I started to see the positives in it, like the freedom of being your own boss, being able to control your work environment, not having to deal with terrible co workers(im a introvert also), being outside enjoying nature. It’s still tough work but happiness & peace is something you cant put a price on.

    Nice Nice Mijo. You should be proud. I am very impressed that you are right on time of your vision and staying focused. I am 56 year old woman and work lawns. I worked in an office 36 years and due to medical issues disabled and now convinced that lawn work is my gift. When I started I did not even know how to string a weed eater or know how to stop or use the blower without getting it in my face.
    Thanks to these types of videos. I learned a little from all that took the time to great these videos. God bless and I am not quitting yet. Im just started...

    More power to ya!
    When the economy crashed in '07 I lost my job. Tried to make some cash passing out flyers in my neighborhood offering to cut grass. All I had was my 22" push mower, a string trimmer, and a leaf blower. Pretty soon word spread and I got more customers. Had to buy a bigger mower, then a trailer.
    I showed up on time, did my best, and was respectable looking, speaking, and acting.
    My "business" grew faster than I could keep up.
    I wish all success in the world to you!

    I've started cutting lawns since I was 15 when I was dealing with family problems. Was hard to do it but it took motivation & dedication to get things done. Years past & my family is getting there things straightened up & i'm 18 working landscaping. I cut lawns big & small, throw mulch, trim lots & big bushes & hedges. It's not a perfect job but it's working so far. Didn't want to be that lazy kid anymore asking my parents for things I want. I push myself & find a way to do it myself. If theres a job out there, take it no matter what if you need it. This guy gave me some good tips in this vid. I start drinking electrolytes instead of cans & cans of Pepsi 😐🙏

I worked for the government for 10 years and hated it...now that I’m 3 years into the landscaping business, I’m making more $ and able to spend more time with my family. Attitude goes a long way in any profession but especially when you’re in the heat. Your video and advice has a good balance of being fair but knowing your worth and making what you should.
