I worked 3pm tues till 430am weds, had to go down rodgersville pa ( some hick town near waynesburg) to swap batteries and stands at a little hut under a cell phone tower for verison. left the warehouse at 330 and got down there at 5 cuz we stopped to eat, then we had to wait till 8 to meet up with some guy, we get there and move 20 batteries (150lbs a peice) into the little hut, took 20 mins so it was like 830, then they couldnt do the swap till 1 am cuz thats when people dont use their cell phones the most. so i got to sleep for 16 bucks an hour from 830 till 130 🤣 we left there at about 2 then slept the way home and moved a 2800lb stand with the batteries in it into the warehouse. then i left and came home, its now 5am, work was sooo much fun tonight :bowrofl: and the real kicker!!! i have about 300lbs of 00 gauge wire in the back of my car 🙂 im going to burn all the sleath off tomorrow and take it down to bethel metals, bare copper there is around $1.00 a lb 🙂🍺 its going towards the turbo kit fund hehe ---

bring that wire out the house and burn it off … quicker then stripping it … toss it in the fire pit and light it up … there is kero in the big tank on the side ---

yea basically anything that is telecom related runs off of -48 volts and there is a ton of money in it … its more of a single guys job because there is so much travel involved but def a good way to make money
