Anyone here climb radio towers or know someone?

I know we have a member that likes to climb and jump off of things like this, but he doesn't do it for work...

I JUST turned down a job that does this two weeks ago. Company is called High Tower Solutions and is based outta Elkhorn NE. Starting pay is 14$, work sun up to sun down. Travel all across the States Monday through Friday. The basics of the job were to take a digital caliper and measure every bolt, nut, cross member, everything. They measure and blue print each tower for Verizon mostly, seeing if the towers are structurally sound to add another antenna for cell phones. The first tower I had to climb for the interview was a 300 foot supported tower, in a freaking dress shirt and pants. Got to the top and saw lightning, climbed down quick, but had a bad feeling in my stomach after that, so declined it.

The jobs are out there, and they normally set you up for certs and whats needed. You can probably get set up quick just because no one normally likes to do this work.
