The bucket truck was built on the frame of a Ford with dual rear axle, and turbo diesel engine. Some might know it as a cherry picker, the kind the hydro or communications companies use when making repairs on the road. We used it for fixing and replacing high up bulbs and fixing parking lot pole fixtures. This particular day, I had finished the service calls requiring the use of the boom-arm, and was on my way to a simple ‘re/re’ (Remove & Replace) of an under counter light fixture. I had not been to this building before, and parking the beast of a truck outside the main entrance. I could move it later if needed. I called the number on the work order for the superintendent for the building. A lady answered, and was already out the door to great me before we hung up the phone. She paused mid-step as took me in, looking over my shoulder at the truck, checking out to see who was with me. “Are you the electrician?” She asked, surprise more than just a hint in her voice.
Bring it on, world.
