Dang Joe, did you get hazardous duty pay for the winter months? Where was that? Since we have so many telecom guys here; before getting this Central Office Tech postion (CenturyTel) I used to be one of Nortel's road warriors. I spent about 270 days a year on the road, but after being gone on one three week trip and coming home to my then 15 month old who wouldn't let me hold him I decided that it was time for a change. The money was great, but not worth what I was missing.
It was a tropo site in Italy. That's not actually the site I worked at, but it was real similar. That one happens to be in southern Italy near Naples (Mount Vergine). I worked at one further north. I don't have any good pics like that of my site, but they all kind of look the same...
All the tropo links are gone. I guess the BW folks want today can't be done too well over tropo. It's all satellite or fiber now. Back then, that job was the shiznit. Now all the sites are either torn down completely, or wasting away.
I know quite a few folks that work for Nortel (or used to) here in Richardson -- in fact, my office isn't a mile from it. I know what you mean about the travel. I used to log a lot of time on the road as well, but I get a lot less now because a lot of testing gets done locally. It's good to be able to actually come home most of the time instead of back to a hotel someplace.
I retired from Halliburton couple years ago. Now I own a feed and farm supply. I do not miss going offshore anymore. I had 25 years with them and now happy to work for myself.
