With my college degree basically doing nothing for me at this point, I have been thinking about going back to school and pursuing a trade. I was wondering what are some trades that you recommend?

So, Geodad... Geodad, right? So Geodad, today's your first day with us and what you're going to be doing is changing a lightbulb. Nope, that's it, just the lightbulb, then you get to go home. Cushy? I guess.

Ok, I'm going to drive you over to the tower- what? Yeah, the KRDK-TV tower. Light's at the top. Just climb to top there and swap out the bulb.

Just a couple of things: There's no caging once you get up a ways so you're just climbing on the outside. This being your first time, you should clip in. It gets gusty up there. Second if you hear a helicopter locate its direction. If it's above you, climb down. If it's below, hang on tight and say your hail Marys - you signed the waiver, right? Good, good.

Just a lightbulb, today. I'll be back to pick you up later this afternoon when you get back down. Have fun!
