Question #$2$

Facts:

Mr$.$ Johnson owns a $600-$acre woodlot in Ohio. The trees in his woodlot are old$-$growth hardwood and much in demand by woodcarvers. When he gets an order for wood, he cuts down the appropriate trees and trims them to the woodcarver$$s specifications. The woodcarver requesting the wood will make the arrangements for picking up the wood. Recently Mr$.$ Johnson took on an apprentice, who after a year of learning the craft will leave and may or may not go into the same business. The apprentice is a computer geek desirous of a change of pace and lifestyle and works for free since he has made a substantial amount in the stock market. Recently Mr$.$ Johnson$$s friend came to visit and suggested that he is subject to OSHA.
