nopity nopada no nope nody

2 days of work for about almost what I make a year🤔, are they hiring ?

The job is real but logically the pay is total BS. Anyone have a legit source? I can find video of this guy but the 'sources' of the pay amount are just randos on sites like twitter / reddit. The legit info I can find is stuff like starting pay for tower climbers is $17/hr. -- If a company was really paying $20K per climb then logically it would make fiscal sense to do it differently. 1. Haul someone up there with a helicopter the way they do for some high power line workers in remote locations. 2. Install some fairly simple circuitry and 2 or 4 bulbs (or whatever) that would just auto switch over to a new bulb. Either on burn out or on a timer. Then said change could happen once every 2 years instead of twice a year. The pay stated does not pass the sniff test.

They could offer me $500.000 per climb and I still wouldn’t do it.

Nope, not enough money for that job.

He might earn 20k twice and change that particular bulb twice a year, but only people gullible enough to believe he gets paid 20k just to change the bulb would be dumb enough to pay him 20k just to change the bulb. Some of these guys make over 100k per year, but they do a lot more than just change light bulbs, and they work something closer to 200 days a year. Plenty of tower climbers make closer to 35k per year, and they'd all be happy to get a 10% raise and be the one who changes that bulb.

My friend who just watched “Fall”:

Imagine getting to the top and realising he dropped the bulb...😩

That's 180,000 nopes to you and me.

$40k to work 2 days a year. Where do I sign up?

I am terrified of heights, but I think I'd do it for the money. 20k for changing a light bulb every 6 months? Of course!

That is not enough money

I'd do that job in a heartbeat!! It's a win-win! Either you succeed, live and get $20k, or you fall to an inevitable death and don't have to worry about continuing to live anymore! 😂Tho I have to ask, why the hell do they use light bulbs that only last 6 months? Why not solar powered LEDs? Seems silly.

Dream job right there.

I wonder if there is any human instinct that makes a small part of your brain say "Jump!"

A guy I knew changed the street light bulbs in Sacramento. He charged the city $100 per light. They are all LED now and I'm sure he retired.

I'd do it.

I'll do it for $19,999. Even provide my own safety equipment. I can handle the terrifying heights twice a year for 40k. That's an excellent side hustle.

I guess this is safer than driving on the highway for an hour! And a great pay, I would do it in a heart beat (loved rock climbing, not afraid of heights).

I wonder who took the photos? Drone maybe... :D

tower climbing is one of the deadliest jobs in the world-think WIND!

Ok, so he's paid $40,000 per year? To risk his life for everyone else. He should ask for a raise.

I can do it lol. 40 k a year, 2 days of work

Eh, I'd do it. Seems like fun.

NOT a fan of heights, especially extreme heights. The movie "Fall" did me in - I couldn't even get halfway through it. Two girls climb a deserted radio tower just like this. I have no idea what happens in the movie, because I had to turn it off. Waaayyy too stressful. Big respect to this guy.
