You’re a WHAT?

TOWER TECHNICIAN

In his career, Billy Smith has reached great heights.

As a tower technician, Billy climbs up the face of telecommunications towers to remove, install, test, maintain, and repair a variety of equipment—from antennas to light bulbs.

Tower technicians also build shelters and radio frequency shields for electronic equipment, lay coaxial and fiber optic cables, and remove pests and weeds. Sometimes, they set supports and stack construction pieces to build the tower itself.

Billy is usually part of a four-person crew: himself and one other technician; a rigger, who moves heavy equipment; and a supervisor, who oversees the job. At the beginning of each workday, the crew members meet to discuss the site they’re working on, the work they will be doing, and any potential safety issues. The crew then travels to the tower site and inspects the tower for hazards, such as power lines or beehives.

When the crew is responsible for installing new equipment on a telecommunications tower, Billy and the other technician climb the tower while the supervisor and rigger stay on the ground. The supervisor and rigger send up the necessary equipment and materials to the technicians, who then follow manufacturer specifications or engineers’ blueprints to install the equipment.

After installing the equipment, tower technicians need to test it. Simple equipment may need only to be turned on and off. But with sophisticated equipment—such as antennas and fiber optic cable—Billy and the other technician might need to use handheld testing devices to verify the equipment is properly installed. For example, they might test fiber optic cables for signal loss. The technicians report to engineers any problems, along with recommended solutions, such as adjusting the tilt or location of an antenna.

Technicians must be mentally prepared and in good physical shape to climb cell phone towers up to 200 feet tall and broadcasting towers up to 2,000 feet tall. The climb is even more difficult because the heavy equipment they carry—such as replacement parts and tools— can weigh more than 90 pounds. “It can feel like you’re carrying another person,” Billy says.

Climbing towers is dangerous work. To stay safe, tower technicians maintain radio contact with the ground crew at all times. But slips, falls, and other accidents—such as overheating from improperly shielded radio frequency equipment—can Vol. 20 Issue 983happen. To help minimize risk, Billy other technicians use climbing Apriland 10 - April 17, 2015

56

and safety equipment that latches onto anchors built into the tower frame. This equipment, known as the Personal Fall Arrest System, includes a safety belt, harness, hooks, and lanyards.

Technicians use the equipment, along with their hands and feet, to stay safe while they are on the tower. For example, Billy might hook a safety cable to the tower and climb with his hands and feet. But when he needs to hang in place and work with his hands, he wraps a lanyard through an anchor on the tower and then secures it through two loops on his safety belt.

Weather is another threat to technicians’ safety, says Billy. Heavy winds can blow a technician off the tower, for example, and ice causes slippery conditions. During the summer, heat and sunlight can lead to overheating or heatstroke. Technicians also have to watch out for lightning, which can strike the tower from a storm many miles away.

Over the years, Billy has learned to judge the weather and to take action to protect himself and his crew. If conditions are poor, Billy’s crew can delay work on the tower until conditions improve. But if he and another technician are already on the tower and the weather suddenly changes, they can rappel down the tower quickly and safely.

Before they ascend or descend towers, technicians receive safety training paid for by their employer. The training usually includes instruction in first aid, cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), proper use of safety equipment, emergency procedures, and rescue operations. “We don’t have to wait for an emergency crew,” says Billy. “We are all trained to do our own rescues.”

Employers may also pay for technical training, from troubleshooting equipment to channeling fiber optic cables. On-the-job training typically lasts about 6 weeks. There is no school for tower climbing, and educational requirements are minimal. “You learn most things on the field through trial and error,” Billy says.

But technicians usually bring some skills to the job. An aptitude for computers, mechanics, and climbing are particularly helpful, says Billy, as are dependability and attention to detail. Tower technicians also must pass random drug tests and be willing to travel on assignments, often for months at a time.

Many tower technicians enter the occupation through personal connections. Billy, for example, was recruited by a cousin who worked in the tower business. “I was climbing oil rigs, but jobs were becoming scarce,” he says. “It was easy to switch to climbing telecommunication

towers.”

Other tower technicians find work through job advertisements. Online portals that specialize in the tower business are particularly useful.

In addition to job ads, these portals often include news, training courses, and other career resources related to tower work.The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) does not collect employment and wage data specific to tower technicians. However, BLS does collect data on a related occupation, telecommunication line installers and repairers, whose workers specialize more on the lines themselves than on climbing the towers to do technical tasks.

There were almost 149,000 telecommunication line installers and repairers in May 2011, according to BLS, and they earned a median annual wage of $51,720, or an hourly wage of $24.87.

Anecdotal information suggests that the typical wage for experienced tower technicians is about $20 per hour. Entry-level technicians earn about $15 per hour. These wages are usually supplemented with hotel accommodations and money for daily expenses when they are on travel for work. Many tower technicians do not work in the occupation long. Some find the work too dangerous, can’t cope with the stress of the climbs, or don’t like the lengthy travel schedule. Others work in the field temporarily while looking for another job.

Consequently, experienced tower technicians often earn excellent job security and are competitively recruited by different companies.

Many also find that mastering telecommunications line technologies is exciting and rewarding. “Every tower is a completely different challenge,” Billy says, “and a new learning

experience.”

Billy knows that the risks of being a tower technician might dissuade some people from making a career of it. But for him, the perks of his work outweigh the danger associated with it. He enjoys the travel and the chance to meet many different people at each site and on the road. And most of all, he says, he enjoys using his skills to do important work: “I feel proud to build something that will last and help others.”

Interviewing Tips From USAJOBS Help

Congratulations on being invited to interview for a position. Follow these four tips to succeed during your interview.

1. The One-Minute Resume Be prepared to succinctly tell the interviewer(s) about yourself in 60 seconds or less. Summarize your background and articulate how those experiences make you the best candidate for this position.

Example: Interviewing for a Project Manager position “For the last 15 years I have managed progressively larger and more challenging projects in the private sector. My most recently completed project was the successful opening of a major office building; this multi-million dollar project was multi-faceted and required extensive collaboration with the construction company, local government for permits and area businesses. I believe my prior work experience and education has prepared me well for a position with your agency. “ Develop and practice your One-Minute Resume, for these reasons: 1. It shows you are comfortable with yourself. This puts both you and the interviewer at ease.

2. If you have a polished oneminute resume, YOU begin to control the interview.

3. A well-delivered one-minute resume will draw the interviewer in to you.

Be careful not to brag - simply tell a short and concise story about yourself.

2. Interview Preparation “This job is mine!”

Believe that you are the best candidate for the job and maintain this positive attitude during the interview. Prepare for the interview by giving thought to some difficult questions that may be asked and how you might answer them.

For example, the interviewer might ask you to “Describe a challenging situation and how you handled it.”

The more prepared you are, the more comfortable you will be during the interview. The interview is your turn to show all that is great about you – your specific work experiences, your outcomes, and your approach to achieving those results. Remember, resumes don’t hire, people do. So, let your preparation and positive attitude be the key to your success in an interview.

4. Interview Follow Up After your interview, follow up with a thank you note. Writing thank you notes is another opportunity to highlight additional skills and qualifications that you may have for the position and to thank the interviewer(s) for the interview opportunity.

THE BIG DEAL ABOUT BUDGETING - Rachel Cruz If I told you that you could get a raise without earning more income, would you take it? Of course you would!

Many people who budget for the first time feel like they got a raise. That’s because they’re discovering money they didn’t realize they had. They’re usually stunned by how much they’re actually spending at restaurants, on movies, or on gym memberships they only use once a month. For a lot of people, a budget is the wakeup call they need to fix their money situation.

So how does it work?

Despite what you might have heard, budgeting is really simple, and it’s even easier when you use a good budgeting tool.

Simply list your income at the top, then list all your monthly expenses.

Every dollar should have a name. In other words, every

64

Vol. 20 Issue 983 April 10 - April 17, 2015

dollar should be categorized to either give, save or spend.

When you subtract your expenses from your income, you should have zero. That’s a zero-based budget.

So what’s the big deal about a budget?

A budget is just a plan. And if you want to win with money, you have to plan. You have to sit down before the month begins and make your budget for that upcoming month. As John Maxwell says, “A budget tells your money where to go instead of wondering where it went.”

Sometimes, the budget gets a bad reputation because people think it means you have to be cheap or that you can’t have a life. But that’s not the case.

You can have a life while you’re on a budge t— you just have to plan for it. That way, you won’t

spend $200 at Target before realizing you overdrafted your bank account.

Now, if you’re still in debt, I want you to be extremely serious about the budget. Cut back on your lifestyle, get intense about paying off your debts, and remember this is only temporary.

Once you’re out of debt, you can pull back on the intensity a little bit, but I still want you to continue budgeting, planning, and making sure you’re doing everything you can to build a financial foundation for your future.

So if you’re struggling with money, now’s the time to start budgeting. When you manage your money correctly, you’ll be shocked at how much money you actually have — instead of letting it slip through the cracks every month.

To get you started, I highly

recommend EveryDollar — a brand-new app and onlinebased budgeting tool that will help you create a zero-based budget that works for you.

ASK DIANA

Q: I was recently laid off from my job in a company that does oilfield surveying. We have had the same thing happen before during my 6 years with the company, but we were always called back to work within at least a month, and it has been more than 4 months already.

I will have to move because I can’t afford the apartment I am in now, and I’m moving closer to my family in southwest Houston. I’ve been talking with other ex-employees, and no one seems to know if there are plans for us to come back or not. Before I move so far away from the office, I would like to figure out if there is any chance my old job will be available again.

Do you have any suggestions?

Do you notice a change?

Q: I am a very religious person, but I don’t care to share with people at work because I don’t want to step on any toes.

Recently my company hired a guy who constantly talks about his church and even leaves brochures on our desks. He told me that he would be glad to talk with me about how to join his church, and I just smiled at him.

In 1907 an author said, “The children now love luxury. They have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise” The problem is in wishing that everything can stay the same.

It can’t, and it doesn’t. If you want evidence, watch any movie that was popular when you were a teenager and see how dated it looks. Adapt.

Tell him that you are very happy and content with your own church, but you keep that private when you are at work. And then ignore him.

If he gets busy doing his work, he shouldn’t be bugging you anymore.

Q: I just moved back to Houston from Louisiana. I came here right after Katrina and stayed for a few years, but I went back home to help care for my mother. I love Houston, but I have been shocked since I returned at seeing the way young people dress here.

They seem to have no regard for manners or for dignity. The 8 years that I have been gone have made a lot of difference in the

Dave Says

BY DAVE RAMSEY

WHAT’S THE GOAL?

ily in this, and what the goal is when they’re adults. I think that will help you make the smart decision.

Dear Dave,

—Dave

We have two girls in competitive gymnastics, and it’s costing $12,000 to $15,000 a year at a professional gym to do all this. My wife and I both work, and we make about $115,000 a year, but virtually all of her income goes toward paying the gymnastics bill. We’re also trying to get out of debt and get better control of our money at the same time.

Should we focus more on our finances right now?

Jim Dear Jim, If I were in your shoes, I’d be asking myself why the kids are in gymnastics. Unless you guys are trying to send them to the Olympics — and they’re actually good enough to reach that level — teaching them things like discipline and to master their bodies through physical training can be done at a local amateur level. And at a much lower cost.

My son played ice hockey in local leagues for years when he was growing up. We did it as a family thing, and he had lots of fun and we all made great new friends. He even played some in high school, too, but he wasn’t NHL material or anything like that. It didn’t change his life that he didn’t play on a traveling team or with professional trainers, so we had to ask ourselves, “What will it matter when he’s 30 years old?”

You make good money, so that’s not really the big issue. If you guys made $50,000 or less, I’d be yelling at you. But with your income, the gymnastics thing probably isn’t going to slow you down too much when it comes to getting your financial house in order. In other words, it’s a parental thing.

Ask yourself why you’re investing so heav-

BICOASTAL IS FOR THE BIRDS Dear Dave, My husband and I have been living bicoastal since last October. He found a great job with great pay in Charlottesville, Virginia, after graduation, and we both agreed he couldn’t pass it up. I’m still in Portland, Oregon, with a good marketing job making $50,000 a year. We’re trying to get out of debt. If I join him now, I won’t have a job and we won’t pay off our debt as quickly.

But being apart is so difficult. Should I go ahead and make the move now?

Danielle Dear Danielle, If he’s making great money, and you guys can make it on one salary while you look for another job, then I’d say go for it. There are things in life that are more important than money, getting out of debt in a certain amount of time, or a particular job.

Have you talked to your company about the possibility of doing your job remotely? If that’s not possible, maybe you could do some consulting on a remote basis. Even if you weren’t a traditional employee, they might float some projects your way.

Talk to them about these ideas, and start shopping for a position in Charlottesville. It’s a university community, if I remember correctly, so there are probably lots of opportunities in your field.

Go be with your husband, Danielle. You guys have been apart way too long already!
