DDD: Dirty, Dangerous, and Difficult

| | Comments (3) | TrackBacks (0)
Nobody wants to work the DDD jobs in Korea for obvious reasons, especially since they don't even pay well. This morning I had a good chance to capture a window cleaner two buildings over on the 17th floor. This job is definately dirty, very dangerous, and quite difficult. Whereas you'll see people in North America using a motorized scaffolding to traverse the building, these guys repel down the side sitting on wooden benches.

He looks like he has been doing that all his life. Interesting pic

Mad skills...don't need no damn scaffolding.

Those window-washers scare me. No safety gear! Plus I'll often see what appears (to my untrained, un-Korean eye!) to be a group of ajosshis just wearing their regular plaid pants and vests and yelling instructions down a manhole.
