4500 meters is 225 meters a day lol, i use to read 900 a day and i knew experienced readers who would do 1500 a day on average. but it was definitely not fun going into those backyards not knowing whats around the corner

At 3:24 - for this case, you don't look at the red sweep hand to read the meter; you look at the black numbers with white background located on the left hand side of the 'odometer' .

I read electric meters for close to 20 years. Easy job. You get to know where the bad dogs are. People get to know when you are coming to read their meter. No big deal. You can get in fantastic shape walking all day.

Nice job, people need to be more mindful of their aggressive dogs, though. ive seen vicious dogs tied to the meter pole, etc. Deliberate hardship and disrespect for the utility meter reader is quite common. You're going in to bill people, essentially, not everyone is so friendly about it. A few rotten apples ruin the overall job perks.

If you extended the handle of your meter key to about 3 foot long, you wouldn't have to get down on your knees at every meter. Faster and more ergonomic.
