ERICCONNELLY 0 #4 June 9, 2003 This is a serious job posting. I found it on monster.com while looking for myself. I will be an unemployed safety consultant in about 3 weeks (end of a project) I wish I could help with qualifications but since this is such a narrow field I can only guess as to what they would be looking for. It wouldn't hurt to e-mail the contact and ask though. Prolly shouldn't mention that you wouldn't need to climb down tho... Edit to add: There seems have been a bit of interest on this, a quick search on monster gave a few others as well. use keywords tower or antenna. happy hunting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
