The Insane $130k Job of Changing Light Bulbs at 600 Meters: Shortage of Applicants Despite the Salary

Despite the insane salary, there is a constant shortage of people for this position.

Netizens are shocked by a job that can earn $130,000 for changing a light bulb.

However, like everything that sounds too good to be true, this work does have a catch.

A video that appeared on TikTok claims that the person who maintains the lights of the signal tower receives this amount.

Despite the exorbitant salary, there is a constant “lack of people” who choose this career, as light bulbs are changed at an altitude of over 600 meters.

“Not everyone can do this at all. This is a special job for work at height, changing light bulbs on signal towers over 600 meters high. This type of signal tower is different from ordinary high-rise towers. It looks like it is built from a metal bracket – the higher the height, the thinner bracket – and there are no protective measures, they are protected only by a rope,” the message says.

You have to be in good physical shape to become a tower lantern changer because, according to a TikTok video, it takes about three hours to climb from the ground to the height of the 600-meter tower. The round trip takes a whopping six hours.

“The highest wind speed at the top of the tower is almost 100 kilometers. If you don’t grab on tight, you’ll just fall,” the video explains.

Users who watched the video were delighted with this work and argued in the comments about whether they could ever do it themselves.

  • Brother, for 130 thousand I will climb Everest to change a light bulb.
  • 130 thousand dollars? Where do I check in?
  • I’m preparing my resume
  • Imagine that at the top you realized that you forgot the light bulb

Remember, scientists created the world’s first breathing, sweating and trembling robot. It can better help understand how the human body reacts to warm waves.
