Yep, I believe it. I used to work for Bartlett Tree Service. That is the most dangerous job there is, next to fishing for crabs in the Bering Sea. Cops complain about the dangers of their jobs, but they are pussies compared to tree guys.
When going up an old tree, you have no idea if the next limb is rotten and will collapse under you. I remember when we took down some 200′-tall tulip poplars, which shook the Earth enough to bounce me into the air, slightly. I recall feeding the chipper when it was 25 degrees F wearing nothing above the waist but a polo shirt, and sweating.
And no, Uncle, nobody did a credit check on me before hiring. This was before that particular bankish abomination started.
Curiously, I’ve never heard of a woman working in that business.
