    Do you hate your job.......?
    We have all gotten up in the morning and just laid there thinking...... If I would just win the lottery. After seeing this video, I don't think anyone would complain about their job. There is NO amount of money for me to do this job. I wonder what the "Want ad"would sound like?

    Wanted..... Crazy person to change light bulb.:yikes: Must have your own tools and workers comp policy!

    Where do I sign up? Would love to wake up knowing I am going to get paid to climb. Would love to be a lineman or such.

    uhh cell towers are not that tall. most are barely taller then telephone polls. that looks like a television trans tower. if that was a cell tower it would be too high to be effective as cell phones work by sort of line of site.

    the guys must be out of his effing mind to do this...it made my stomach hurt just to look at it...and now that he is there, he should install a LED bulb, that will last 100,000 hours...so he doesn't have to climb there once again...

    Had the same thought......... they must have to really watch the weather as the updrafts and strong winds could blow these guy around with them hanging by just that rope.

    This job has to pay big as that is life risking EVERYTIME they go up.......big one's displayed no doubt, this tower must sway quite a bit as when I went to Chicago to the Sears tower stepped off the elevator and felt the building move! I was not happy....... the girl behind the reception desk had a fishbowl on it so you could see the water contained in it moving!!!!!!!!!! she also said some days it is so bad most people visiting get sick.

    Holy shit. That dude must get PAID to do that shit. I wonder if he wears a parachute of some kind, you know, just in case. I would.

    It would scare the hell out of me even if it would be stationary, but when it's moving, it would be much worse... no effing way I'm going up that high...

    At least he gets to change the bulb. Worse is the second dude that only gets to carry the bag for him.
