Hi mylotters, I secure an outdoors area where the electricity workers install electricity cables for a new neighborhood. I started my workday at 6:00 (4 hours and 30 minutes ago) and will finish at 14:00. I have time to study but don't feel like doing it. The sun is shining hard as always and I'm inside a container with an air conditioner working. The workers climb a high installation poles to work on a high ummm...elecricity column? How is your day? Any advice to make the most out of it ?

Seems like a very hard and dangerous job there.

Heavy vehicle
Looks like it. They install cables on the...Eifel tower thing, what is it? They have a heavy vehicle that lifts up things for them.

Do you work and study? You must have very busy day.

I just watch around and stay awake and alert. Someone might pretend to be a constructor worker and try to take the copper cables leftovers (that are still huge and expensive). That's an easy job.

It seems to be a cool job, I suppose potential robbers are not coming during the day. Have a good day !

Well, there was a guard who didn't suspect the constructor worker. That constructor worker pretended to take away the "trash". That wasn't his job to take the cables leftovers. That worker doesn't work with the electricity company anymore. Still, in was not a robbery. It was a greedy constructor.

@jstory07 Thank you very much. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day too. How can one describe the installation I took a picture of ? In hebrew, we call this kind of cage ( not really a cage but a looks like a cage from the outside) pigumim. How do you call the pole that looks like the Eifel tower? I think about stuff to post about later. I read some material, and watch for strangers so they won't come near.

Why to be frown ? I get up everyday with a smile on my face, this is an opportunity to go outside, see people, read, stay alerted :-)

Wow, you really work hard. I guess you are both working and studying at the same time. As for me, I have had a long day. I am about to hit the sack because I have got another long day tomorrow.

@freelancermariagrace I don't consider it as hard. I enjoy it, the hardest thing is to take myself and study when I have the chance, even if for less than a minute. I need to take the opportunity, read some lines, think about them, write myself a little notice.
