Must ride mule to and from work location
I love it when "rural" and "IT" come together.  Reminds me of a job listing I came across when I was on the beach a few years ago.<p>It was for the government of the state in which I lived at the time.  It was listed in the IT area.  Essentially, the responsibility was to test and maintain computers and their webcams in transmitter sheds at the top of the tallest, most remote mountain peaks in the state.  They were part of some kind of state-wide radio network, presumably for forest rangers, firefighters, BLM, and similar types of agencies.<p>I didn't apply because the job listing included requirements about the ability to handle strenuous hiking, previous experience camping for a week or more at altitude in winter, and various types of outdoorsy skills which I simply don't possess.  All I could imagine was spending a week walking up a mountain with a couple of servers strapped to my back in deep snow.  Not my scene.<p>And sadly, because it was a gub'mint job, it couldn't pay extra for the hardships involved.
