Tom Bulawa, window washer
Q: How long have you been washing windows?
A: About six years. We go all throughout Manhattan, from uptown to downtown, commercial buildings and residences. You get to see many different places.
Q: Why do you choose to work alone?
A: It is nice to be by yourself—that way you can concentrate on what you are doing. You are dealing with heights and you do not want to drop anything. You have to keep track of all your equipment. If a squeegee slips out of your hands at that height, you could injure someone pretty good.
Q: So I’m guessing you’re not afraid of heights.
A: No. I have been up to about 40 stories. After a while, you get accustomed to it. At first, it was pretty scary—my knees started shaking. Now it is easier. You know what to expect. It’s pretty cool when you’re hanging off the side of a building on, say, Seventh Avenue and you look down into the middle of the Fashion District and see cars buzzing beneath you…it’s kind of exhilarating.
