Once upon a time I was a maintenance man for a chain of convenience stores in West Texas.. One of the stores I was responsible for was in Monahans. A lite was out in the canopy over the pumps. It was High,, so 18 wheelers could get under,,I was ordered to replace the bulb,, I am 5'6" on a tall day.. I had a 14 foot ladder. I set it crossways on the tool box in the truck bed,, & stood on my tip toes on the top of that ladder. Seeing a 30 or 40 MPH gust come out of nowhere out ther is a common occurrence,, I did the job,& I did it ONE More time,, then, I told my boss he would have to find another way to fix a burned out bulb,, because I wasnt climbing up there like that again,,Not any kinda safe, I know that sawed off jerk never did that,, he was shorter than I am,, thers no way he coulda even reached the housing to pull the cover off, much less reach up in there to get the bulb out,.waddajakkass!
