He's an atheist and he's OK.
He will not tithe and he does not pray.

If I was a lumberjack I'd use one of those bad boys.
We are actually quite edgy with those. Damn deadly things. Did you know the chain of a chainsaw has once come off and flew straight into the user? Those things can rip right through you in less than 3 seconds.
Only one uses the chainsaw at a time. I'm happy sticking to axes. Besides, we do more chopping of small logs so it can be turned into coal. I'm not quite sure how they do it. Takes the whole day and night.
Sometimes we pick up large logs and pile them on top of each other. I'd never touch a chainsaw.

True, true.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

I'm an atheist and I'm OK.
I will not tithe and I do not pray.
I like my God.
He leaves me alone.
He does not cramp my style.
And though I say I'm an atheist.
I've been a deist all the while.
Chorus: he likes his God. He leave... ***What? What was that? Get outta here ya lousy superstitious...***
I'm a freethinker and I'm OK.
I will not tithe and I dooooo noooooot praaaaaaay.

Use electric chainsaws -- instant shut off time, sane speeds, usually better build. Power's an issue though, I usually have a generator handy.
When we've been forced to use the gas powered chainsaw, it's always exciting. I remember one time that chain slipped off when we were pulling it out of a cut and the goddamn thing literally climbed up the tree. Yes, the fucking loop of a chain had so much energy that it climbed up the tree we were cutting down, reaching 5 feet before falling down.

Fun stuff.

I like chainsaws, but only with good footing and thick clothes.

Hey, Syn.
Most of the time this is all I do - ![[Image: smiley-chores017.gif]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=www.freesmileys.org%2Fsmileys%2Fsmiley-chores017.gif) (Perfect visual description)
No need for chainsaw.

Imagine if you were cutting up logs and you slipped? Chain saws have no problem with wood, imagine what it would do to flesh. Thankfully, no one has yet been hurt. Except for the odd cut here and there.
Most of the time we don't cut down trees. We may cut down one, but after that the whole day is spent either piling logs or cutting them up. One chainsaw man cuts logs up into smaller pieces, and we axe men chop them into smaller bits ready for the coal men who turn it all into coal. 1 chainsaw man, 3-4 axe men, 2 coal men. £50 per bag of coal and we produce a good few.
Lovely job. We take about 4 breaks each day.

Do you have the following requirements: Can use an axe, and don't mind taking it easy for a good portion of the day? We have so many free cups of tea.

I'm sure I could handle that. What's the pay? When do I start?
