Found these pics while cleaning today. There various pics of me at work.
Anybody looking for a job??? So you wanna be a lineman eh?
Here's a 70+ foot steel pole. We were working off a hook ladder suspended by a handline. Know your knots baby!!! I'm the one in the white shirt (the other guy who's butt was biting in to the ladder rung is Chad):
Full view of pole:
Here I am on a 90 footer that I learned to climb on with hooks(gaffs) in apprenticeship school:
"Walking wire" in a 2AM wire tear-out on Amtrak's main line in Perryville, MD:
Apprenticeship school. We framed these poles from hooks and handlines(no bucket trucks used):
Nowadays it's mostly little 25-35 foot climbs to work phone lines...
Cakework!!!
