when I was younger you wouldn't even catch me on a roof top I was so terrified, a I got older and tarted climbing more (started on 25ft towers, eventually moved up to 50 then 75 then 100+, these were cheap tv antennas with small bolts that I didnt even tie off to because I was more worried about the tower falling down) you kind of start to like the rush of it -- my first big tower climb was a bit terrifying, but going up with a crew was comforting and after you're up the for a while and learn things you start to enjoy it. once you've got a list of tasks ahead of you, you aren't really focused on the ground anymore.

Wtf are you supposed to do if you reach the top after a 2hr climb and a very strong storm comes in?

Damn dude could've have sworn you just posted about this new job like 2 weeks ago. Has it already been months? Time flies for +30 crew I guess...

Did you move out to the new area that's closer to the action? How do you like the new place?

Also mirin face pic, actually pretty aesthetic (no homo)... as opposed to that retard eod in the other thread who looks like someone drew a sadface on a pumpkin full of turd but somehow thinks he's a young brad pitt.

start climbing down, at that height you'll see it coming

but you should never be put in that position, the company you work for and yourself are meant to keep an eye on the weather radar -- if there's a high chance then you don't climb

fukn lmao, thanks brah

I haven't moved yet, gonna start looking. I have a chicks house I can spend the night at whenever that lives 15 mins from the office, i've also got a couple friends that I can stay with whenever that live close to the gta office.
my job has 2 locations to choose from that I can move closer to but I'm signed up for travel work right now so i've got time to dwell on it. living that hotel life.

anywhere in the gta is expensive as fuk so i'm thinking about moving to the kitchener/waterloo area

It was mentioned that you can get fried if the tower operates at full power while you're up there. I've always been curious about this, what happens? Fried in the sense that you did damage to your body that could lead to cancer or fried as in you'd instantly realize that the tower was on an lose consciousness or some ****?

Anyways congrats brah, crazy job, mirin execution of goals and the pics

Mirin hard OP

you'd get some amazing photos from up there.

Do you brahs have any policy about going up when the weather's going to be potentially bad? My biggest fear wouldn't be the height, it'd be getting melted by lightning.

today we called off the work day because there was a high chance of thunderstorms, they never ended up coming but we didn't take the risk. there was on and off downpour and some bad looking clouds, the site supervisor keeps an eye on the weather radar and forecast. sometimes we bring a radio up with us and they keep you up to date on the weather too

Travel work is probably the right move right now to get more experience and see some new places. You can settle down when that gets boring. Hotel life tho... das not it mane. I only travel about 10% of the time but not really about that life.

How long does each stay at a job site take? I could see myself being down for it if it was several days or weeks. I just hate doing the fly in, work your ass off a day or two, lose sleep trying to see the area after work, then fly back tired as fuk and back to work the next day... If I was spending weeks at a time somewhere it could be pretty cool.

Not too familiar with GTA, only been twice. But if it's anything like LA, you can probably find a mid-range area and just uber to where the action is happening.

when we build towers they take weeks, i'll probably put in 6 weeks of 12 - 14 hour days straight then do 10 days off, if there is more work to do after that i'd probably just do my sight seeing during that 10 days and have a lot of money to play with

I try and eat decent and drink a coffee in the morning to get my chit out of the way then I don't eat til i've got a few hours left in my shift just to play it safe
try and avoid having to go back down -- once we're up, we're up all day.
