Sorry if this is a repost but someone at work just sent it to me.

Looks like a perfect job to me. Only thing is I would rather have a rig on...

I have a friend who erects big (2000 feet) towers and I don't know how he does it, particularly near the coast where the winds can be like 50 mph at the top.

Well when they said there was no quick/easy way down I had to disagree with them.

Re: [wwarped] Perfect Job
Yeah I found it on YouTube after I posted it. I have been out of the loop for years. Pretty much gave up on jumping. Too many other hobbies and you know that jumps aren't cheap. Especially when you are just a beginner skydiver. I never even go to BD anymore which isn't much of a drive for me to make. This whole career thing is sucking the life slowly out of me too. But there is hope, the Mega Millions lottery is up to a record amount this week!

it's fun work, especially when you occasionally DO take the quick way down. OSHA doesn't have to know about everything... Tongue
