发帖数: 20306 | 1 在唐人街中山公园（官方名为哥伦布公园），四五个中年老墨在修剪树枝，把直径10厘
米以下的大部分树枝锯掉。
其实这活，最好用一辆有升降平台的卡车， 人站在平台上操作比较好。
他们没有这样的卡车，而是人“爬”到树上去锯树。
而且也并不是爬树，而是先往一个较高的树杈上扔上去一根绳子，然后拽着绳子把自己
吊上去，用另一条辅助绳在树杈上把自己固定好后，锯树枝。
这其中要使用一种夹子，绳子只能在夹子里朝单一方向滑动，这个特制的夹子，显然是
攀岩的专业工具。
我以前也想过用这种方法爬树，设想过这样的夹子，但当时只是我凭空设想的，我还没
有把它发明出来。
这次我旁观别人砍树，则离着十米远，模模糊糊地看见了这种夹子， 也就是我以前曾
试图发明，但还没有发明出来的，使绳子在里面单向滑动的夹子。
我在中国也有一次在路边见过工人修剪树枝，搭个三四米的梯子爬上树，没有使用任何
绳索，没有使用安全绳把自己绑在树上，就半靠着站在树枝上锯断一条直径20厘米的树
枝，树枝距离地面大约四米。 而且我的记忆中他们就这么直接锯断树枝，让它在自己
的重力下折断掉下来， 没有使用绳子对树枝牵引。 我当时心中大骂他们没有安全意
识。
这次在中山公园见到的老墨锯树枝，也没有使用绳子对被锯的树枝进行牵引，貌似直径
10厘米的树枝，在被锯断时突然折断脱落，摔的力量不是很猛烈， 不牵引也可以。
我想这活儿，中国人也可以做，为什么没人做？ 为什么唐人街的园艺工人都是老外？
中国来的中青年男人，当站街男搞装修的，几乎都是偷渡客。 中老年男人则做餐馆工
。
版上的混得滋润的高学历傻叉们，其中有少数吹嘘自己经常跟白主子一起玩户外的，有
几个人会用这种攀岩用的单向绳夹？ |

I've been running a tree trimming and removal business for well over 10
years as a side business. My day job is researcher in a Pharm company.
outdoor and heavy equipment are some of my hobbies. I climb most of my trees
, some over 70 feet high. If it's accessible, I use my bucket truck which
goes as high as 55 feet. The device Qiu refers to is called "micrograb, or
accender" which is a cam device.I's a very lucrative business. An
experienced climber can easily bring home 150 per hour. High risk hi reward! |

另外，楼主大概不太了解美国基层劳动社会，才会问出：“为什么唐人街的园艺工人都
是老外？ ” 这种问题。
基层劳动人民，其实种族分群更厉害。 而且有垄断现象。 比如，某机场搬运工如果
全是老印，那就是被老印垄断了。只要被老印占领，就不会允许外人进入。 另外一个
可能全是老墨，另一个全是老黑。
如果某地园艺被老墨占了，那就垄断了，外人想进去很难。
只有华人比较例外，比如中餐馆，这是华人劳工的传统地盘，但除非老板想要省钱只用
最便宜的偷渡客或者学生，一般华人老板不会拒绝黑人白人的工作申请，甚至喜欢用白
人黑人，显得自己融入社会。
但是别的种族则不会这样。老印的地盘，除非找不到人或者被AA压力，不会用老中。
别的你看不见，你可以看公路施工的。都是按种族分群的。就算找不到人，他们一般也
不允许外人轻易进入。
其实黑社会也一样，某地毒品地盘被某种族占领，不会允许外族帮派进入。 除非被别
的帮派打败。
乞丐也有地盘。 |
