I needs an upgrade to be the Windmill Repairman.

Fiber Optic Lineman just doesn’t cut it, either.

When I drive around the west, I sometimes see the old phone line crossbars fallen down. Each had a hundred lines strung on them with old glass insulators. All that replaced with one hair-like strand of optical glass fiber. Fiber optic lines are either underground in conduits or on top of electric transmission towers.

The poor Lineman never had a chance with all these technology changes.

The “Starlink Satellite Man”? Nah. Nobody can run that fast.

Things just aren’t the same.

Besides, it would have to be the “Wichita Line Non-binary Cisgender Questioning Person.”
