“My most memorable job would have to be working at a Supreme Court judge’s office. This job presented a unique set of problems, due to it being built in the late 1700s. Since I am on the smaller size, I was sent into the crawlspace in a Tyvek suit (see photo!) to pull camera and intercom cables through the building. While crawling, I came across quite a few snake skins and managed to get myself stuck. Without the help of my co-worker pulling my legs to get me out, I may have had a bigger problem.”
