Stop in for a cup of coffee
Some telecom co workers of mine just had the "ladder fun" removing all of the cabling in the overhead from a building some of our company was vacating. They asked the manager for a scissor lift, small one that actually can go on an elevator, they've used it before. Unfortunately for them, no lift, lots of ladder moving, that cost more money than the rental of the equipment. Oh well, stupid pays better I guess...
