Title: helping a tree worker friend
Post by: slider on July 31, 2023, 08:04:51 AM
Yesterday i sent my crew to help a tree service friend do a small job.

2 weeks ago he was in an spat with his wife and from 30 yards away she shot him in the stomach wit a 410 pistol  ,bird shot and a slug. I know the guy and like him.

2 days in icu and he will recover but he needs time to recover,we just needed to help and i am glad we did.

Someone posted a large bond and the judge refused.

A spat! DanG that was some spat.
Let me guess, he got shot by a Judge?

No kidding, some 'spat'.
A 410 pistol, 30 yards, birdshot AND a slug? 
That's one pistol packin' Mama.
You're a good friend to help him out in his hour of need. 
Small wonder people are always talking about how dangerous tree work can be !

A good friend you are, Al.  Sounds like "she work" can be more dangerous than tree work.

I did not ask about the spat but him being 30 yards away is what saved him.
