Holy Crap

[phosphor]

I worked for a local IT company a while long while back and they had wireless internet provider equipment in some local towers and water towers around the area to service mainly companies. I sometimes climbed the 300-600ft towers to access the equipment.

A few times, I would get to the top and straddle the strobelight and take panoramic pictures. It would sway roughly 2-3 ft back and forth on a regular day. While climbing, it would give me one helluva workout especially since I wasn't climbing a true ladder, it was more like monkey bars - I cannot imagine climbing almost 2000ft because they would have to helivac my exhausted ass off the thing after reaching the top. They sway would be crazy as well.

I did it making just $13 an hour and I loved it at the time. Nowadays I wouldn't touch it for under 60 as a full time job. I would love to get back into it.

Maniclion, you must have balls big enough to sit on my friend.

No, he's got a brain small enough to fit through the eye of a needle.

I heard that he once sneezed so hard it came flying out of his nostril and he lost in beneath his balls.

Not a chance in hell I would do that. I don't think any amount of money would give me the balls to climb that tower and I've gone sky diving before.

I would freaking love that job. I love heights and dangerous working conditions. For some reason it calms my nerves.

I know exactly why!

It's because when you're in that setting, you know your enemy!
Your mind isn't randomly circling anxious thoughts and shit that happens in your everyday life.

It gives you focus because you can see the source of your anxiety.
