Bethlehem, PA | Skyscrapers! Does that picture remind anybody else of those old-time photographs where the construction works who you were building skyscrapers would just sit on the I-beams, and eat their pail-lunches, carefree?
Yeah I don't think so. I'd be moving that carabeaner every 10 seconds if I had to. Hey - you're paid hourly, not by how fast you climb, right?  |

I once had a dream that Sean Connery stayed at my apt., and he had his laptop with Win98 on it, and he knew how to connect to my wireless network. I don't do drugs  |

Mansfield, TX | Depending on the job, it varies. For simply changing a light bulb... the company I worked for charged for trip, hotel (if we had to stay), and by the climb distance.
Usually, I'd average about $400-$500 per climb (a couple hours at most); however, the company I worked for would charge $2-3K just for MY labor. Seems expensive, but it's small peanuts... compared to the fine they'd face, for not keeping the tower within regulations. |
