Question to Mike Rowe: If you could do one of these jobs for the rest of your life which one would it be?Answer: If I could or if I had to?
Question to Mike Rowe: Either.
Answer: It would be one of the entrepreneurial ones, not one of the piecemeal ones. It would be outside. You know it might be high-rise window-washing, one that's coming up in the new episodes. I don't recall ever being as scared and at the same time as transfixed by the beauty. You're in Hawaii, five hundred feet up looking at Pearl Harbor dangling from a skinny little rope,
you're crapping your pants for sure, but you are just surrounded by this amazing beauty. And when beauty and fear live that close to each other it's not entirely unpleasant. You get sort of used to it and you think it could be fun. As opposed to the sharks, there was no beauty, there was just "Oh My God". I like those mixes, it wouldn't be something like gandy dancing or dam deconstruction. It wouldn't be the job where they hand you the sledgehammer at 6 AM and take it back when the sun goes down. I'm just too old for it and it hurts too much the next day. The squeegee's easier on the back. There's a real art to proper squeegee manipulation. There's a feathering techniques and if you do it right you don't have to go back and
clean up the streaks. You're sitting on a swing, throwing suds up, and as quick as you can, before the sun dries them, using this special technique. It's beat the clock, it's don't fall, and it's really pretty all jammed into the part of your brain that really matters. It's not boring.
State fines Grand Rapids firm $21,000 in connection with fatal June fall by window washer at art museum. A window washer who plunged 60 feet to his death at the Grand Rapids Art Museum did not have a lifeline anchored to the building and was not shown where the safety device should have been placed on the roof, state safety inspectors allege. A four-month Michigan Occupational Safety and Health Administration investigation found 21-year-old Tyler Cotter's line was incorrectly tied to the rigging system, which also did not have a bolt properly installed, authorities say.The cumulative result of the alleged violations of safety procedures led to the fatal June 17 fall, for which the state fined Cotter's Grand Rapids-based employer, Award Window Cleaning Services Inc., $21,000. The state cited the business for inadequate tie off on the lifeline, inadequate training of Cotter and for exposing him to the hazard. Cotter died about a month after his daughter, Peyton Cotter, was born. His mother, Judith Cotter, said it continues to devastate his family that he could not raise the child that he doted on when not at work. The revelations further frustrated her since she believes the accident could have been avoided. "It seems like someone was careless and there should have been more supervision," Judith Cotter said. "That stuff should be checked every single time and he should have been told. "Tyler was very cautious, but he didn't know. It could have been prevented."
Mark Reinhart, Award's president, is reviewing the state's findings. He contends the company's training is extensive for the high-rise cleaning operation. "We make sure that before they even go up that they know everything," Reinhart said. "We quiz them and revisit any areas of concern. We work hard at it." A second window washer working at the museum was not hurt in the accident. The men had completed one section of the windows and were in the process of doing the next set. The allegations of unsafe work conditions are not the first to be levied against the window cleaning service. State investigators cited Award in 2007 after an aerial lift toppled as workers were about 90 feet in the air working on Van Andel Arena windows. The two workers who crashed to the pavement in that mishap suffered minor injuries. See also here.
