next step is to lead my own crew, then move into a construction manager role when my body can't take it any more
but i'd like to keep climbing for as long as I can. all the retired guys say how much they miss climbing.
it took a year or two to fully trust the equipment

Then, the adrenaline through the roof when you're suspended in the air and seeing your feet dangle or when you have to make sure, in my case, that the large piece of the trunk/branch I just sawed off goes down as planned and doesn't knock me out by a ricochet.

also have a backup lanyard attached to a lower section with a shock pack that will stop me from falling too far
I haven't thought about running my own company, they are making it so only the big companies get the contracts in canada. mom and pop shops ruin the industry under bidding and sacrificing safety for profit.
One day i'll look into being a construction manager in the field

I usually work 3 - 5 weeks straight and take a week or two off then get back to it. christmas time we always get 2 weeks off as well (unless we want to work)
