Drop the quest, logout of client completely , then try it? this is just 
random button pushing.

Since you aren't there for long the resources from trees aren't all that 
great anyway, if you were grinding to 100 you would get a lot more gr 
from rares etc than the 120 a day from the mill work orders.
6 per day x 20??
Also you have to get the timber as well, lvl1 give half a work order or 
so, but at first it used to be rare to find any timber outside 1am-5am
  If you can see any it means most chars have moved on.
Pretty quickly you start finding many need lvl2 mill then lvl 3, the 
small timber become rarer and you can't harvest the larger timber.  If 
you aren't harvesting you aren't distracted, or stuck in a tree  with 5 
mobs and a rare respawning constantly on you :-).
