what the hell is this "job" you have and where do I sign up?
I've been wondering the same thing recently.
I work for the largest electric utility in AZ,
APS. Basically Arizona's equivalent of Rocky Mountain Power. I am a Communication Technician which means I work on all of our communication equipment in my geographical area, most of which is on the tops of mountains. I am also responsible for helping out with computer issues, security systems, cameras, etc. I drive ~20K miles/year mostly on back roads. I see a lot of wildlife and I pretty much make my own schedule. It's a pretty sweet deal.
You can apply here:

But unfortunately most of the jobs are boring desk based. Most of the rest are apprenticeship based (fairly competitive to get into, but compensate quite well, even while training). If anyone is actually serious
about being interested, feel free to reach out.
