Im a Lumberjack, and I'm OK
Being a lumberjack is a lot of hard work. Many people think we all look like the Brawny paper towel man and wear flannel all day, when nothing can be farther from the truth, except flannel is pretty comfortable. Lumberjacks must be very knowledgeable of different types of trees, for each one has a specific structure, composition, and age. These factors determine which wood is best for a certain purpose. Modern technology has certainly helped lower the amount of manual labor and increase efficiency. Power saws and large vehicles help cut trees down faster and make transporting lumber easier. It especially helps when the wood is wet from heavy rain.
