I've been watching a guy on youtube be a linesmen. Seems like a good job if you like electricity and a little danger in your life.
And want to make really good money. Staring pay is pretty average but with some experience it can get pretty good. Especially if you are willing to work high voltage transmission lines. I think those are up to 150,000 + a year
I’m not native English speaking so not sure what you mean with « high voltage transmission line » but I’ve a friends working on high voltage pylon (he put the cables on them). In 10 years he got 2 back surgeries. He is now in work incapabilities. 4-5 of his colleagues died at work. He won less than 2000€/month.
May be different somewhere else, but it is not a job I would recommend.
