Aging Work Force Inspires Utility Worker Training
(Chicago Sun Times) — In the worst recession in memory, Helen Duguay discovered that climbing utility poles is a better career choice than selling real estate.
A former real estate agent out of work since May, the 43-year-old mother of five is learning to scale poles and operate a crane, a backhoe and other equipment used at electric and gas company construction sites.
“We all have to be flexible in what we can do,” Duguay said. “I’ve never done this before.”
