This post on yahoo answers says these guys get paid a whopping $12 an hour. lmfao. So that's what a life goes for these days?

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080908132819AAqLwQ6


lol is that even fucking legal to pay that amount for any work?

$12/hour is nothing, its like what homeless people makes

fucking swedes.
Minimum wage is like 6.75/hr


and $1/hr isn't uncommon in some parts of Europe.^^

Still, it's crazy low for a job like this.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

That's absolutely terrifying.

Doing it ONCE would be nervewracking enough... I can't imagine someone doing that everyday and NOT messing up once.

Heh, I just drew the electrical single line diagram for the Sutro Tower in San Francisco last month. I wondered what it would look like from the top..

I'll stick to CAD, thanks.

I do this for a living (Transmission Technologist) and I have to say that this guy is crazy, going up that high free climbing while theres a storm approaching. Like the guy said, theres no quick way down, and if Thunder's going to hit around the area, its going to hit those towers.

Oh and its not a daily basis job, unless you're a tower climbing contractor of course. I climb a tower maybe once every 4-5 month to change a light beacon(so planes don't go crash into your towers), most of the time you're going to be inside the plant fixing/operating or doing maintenance on the transmitters themselve. Towers require little to no maintenance, its basically just a big metal rod(in most case).
