My side job inside my real job

It is my job to stand in a tower and take pictures of the zippers.... For 8 hours a day... No brake ether.
This camera cost the company $500,000 and they cant get it to work... Shows what type of people I work under.
So for 8 hours a day I am connected to a tree and about 150 feet on a platform taking pictures. I felt like a caged animal.
Being up there for so long though you get some visitors. This Stellers Jay came really close to me a few times.

Eagles were flying around all day and this one perched itself on top of a crane.




Yes even a Bear came to see me. Funny how I was the trapped animal and the animals can move... Well this is just a way for me to get more hours, but it is not comfortable and I need to talk to management about getting me a seat up there... Or maybe they dont know how to work one of those ether. I still do tours and enjoy doing tours a lot more then "The Tower".
