    Love to see the big chief buying the braves a coffee at the end of a miserable day, and waiting till last to be served is wonderfully yet understatedly humble. Great morale booster and a sign of appreciation. As bosses go you are an inspiration and as crews go your guys are premier league. Huge regards from Scotland.

    I'm a native Floridian. I like sand, sun, swamps, and beaches. And I do like snow, _in pictures and videos_ - lol. I'm not an arborist. In fact, I've never _fell_ a tree in my life, although I've *_cut_* many down, in my time - lol. RUclips recommended one of your videos a month or two ago, and since then, I've watched many of them. I'm not sure why these interests me so much. I know part of it is the demeanor of everyone, especially when problems arise. Where I grew up here in Florida, people used to be more relaxed. We had farms, swamps, fishermen, and orange groves. It was country. Now it's a city. Florida is becoming one big angry city where 90% of the people are angry city folk, in a hurry to get somewhere. So, in a strange sense, I find these videos relaxing. And I also learned something. As I said, I had always *_cut thees down._* I would cut a notch on one side, and then cut down at an angle from the opposite side. I wasn't sure why you cut straight across. I guess _that_ could be one video that I've yet to see. But I did begin looking into it, and I found out how lucky I've been. So, thank you for uploading great videos, that caught my attention enough, that I finally learned the danger which I had been putting my self in.

    I have found keeping morale high with the crew is the best way to get through tough jobs or bad weather. It’s apparent you take care of your guys because they all seem proud to wear your name on their shirts.

    Love the bar. When seeing the deck tree first shots, my builder's brain went straight to repairing the hole - how many boards, which boards to remove and cut back to seamlessly repair it, adding the joists. The bartop solution was elegant. "Elegant" in a 3 lumps of wood kinda way.

    your crane operator is so smooth with that machine. At time of cutting through the trunk they barely move a fraction of an inch, that's how well he got the boom placed. Very impressive. And building that table for the homeowner is going the extra mile. That guy sure was happy about it.

    back in the 90s and a time when i was 15.my boss told me that if i gave him $100 he would teach me the secret to success.i worked a solid week to make that.after paying him he smiled.he then put his coffee down and gently said lesson 1 show up and lesson 2 build success on your own rather than working hard to pay some one for a shortcut . so i learned showing up is only half the battle but also the most important thing in life.

    • @zwz.zdenek

      The actual lesson behind that is that ripping people off is the way to success. He suckered $100 out of you in exchange for a bogus statement. That's why he is successful and you aren't, relatively speaking. I hope you're doing okay.
