Talked to a retired lineman about pole work, now I second guess every ladder climb
Had a coffee with a guy who spent 30 years on utility poles outside of Columbus and he said the worst falls he saw weren't from storms or bad cable, but from guys getting too comfortable on the second job of the day. He told me to count my hooks every single trip up, even on a simple drop, because muscle memory is what kills you. Anyone else ever get a piece of advice from an old timer that made you change up your daily routine?
