especially if you are still doing what you were the last time I talked to you. :)
Tried to do the Shrek loadin the day after the Haunted House I was working in closed ... & I'd spent the 2nd to last day there on the zipline, which meant much more "noise making" in a heavier fog than I was used to. *grin*
I kept having to tell people that no, I wasn't sick ... I just had been screaming my head off in heavy fog! lol (Of course, I also had raw skin on my neck from the ill-fitting harness ... so they kinda believed me.)
There was one point where a co-worker with a "smaller" voice than me was trying to communicate with someone on the ground from the beam. She radioed down to me to see if *I* could reach him (I was on the 1st balc). After a few attempts, I had to radio back that no -- apparently I could NOT! lol Normally, my voice reaches damned near anywhere, if I need it to. I was damned near TOTALLY mute by the end of each day.
All in all, Shrek was an "interesting" loadin ... including a trussstack falling because an overeager local pulled the wrong pins, & they bent the living hell out of one of our pipes. It totally looked like one of those old paper hats afterwards. lol I was VERY glad to be FOH, even if I couldn't shout down to the ground very well.
