Every time I drive back home to PA I have to travel over a 9% grade road and an 11% grade, I must be SS material!

They would have had more agents in Butler, PA, but they had some hills along the route that posed too great of a danger getting there.

(if needed), a diet plan, a bullet-proof vest, and directions on how to guard a candidate.

You should at least apply for hazardous pay from your employer. Use USSS as citation.

Roof slope is specified per 12 feet of run, not percentage. 2-12 would be a 2 foot rise in 12 feet, etc. 2% would be a 2 foot rise in 100 feet. A big difference, although a 2-12 is a very low slope, and is probably the actual pitch of the shooters roof.
