A job I do not want

A tower crane was recently set up close to where we live, in North Bethesda, MD. As I looked at it one day, I saw people walking on its arm, and from here, they looked as small as ants (see photos below). Can you imagine having a job like that? I think it would definitely qualify as a hazardous occupation, especially in light of the recent crane collapses.

    I hear you! I’m not comfortable with height anyway, and having to stand on a crane boom that’s swaying in the wind at skyscraper height, with the knowledge that the crane could collapse as well, would be sheer torture.

Who are you, and what would you like to say?
