　　Climbing the corporate ladder (晋升) during my 32 years at Southern Bell (now AT&T) never appealed much to me. But climbing telephone poles? Now that's a whole different story.

　　In 1978, I became the first female lineman in Columbus, Georgia.  I really enjoyed the work, and most of the men accepted me because I worked hard at it.  I think that at first, they didn't think I could do it. But I got right in there and proved myself.

　　I was a lineman for about three years. Then l went on to work at other outdoor jobs at the company before l retired in 1997.

　　I decided to become a lineman because I wanted to work outdoors. I was a tomboy (假小子) as a child and even built my own tree house, so you could say I had a little experience. My husband, William, encouraged me to give the job a try. After work, I liked to drive around town and show him the wires I'd spliced (加固) that day.
