At that point, a lot of them withdrew their applications, and the choice fell to Giuseppe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The new operator lives in Curiglia, and after some time \u201cdown in the valley\u201d, he decided to return home. He recently turned fifty, and he will earn about <strong>\u20ac600 a month, a sum that is sufficient in these parts, if you live frugally and simply<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<strong>So many of the people that replied to our advertisement didn\u2019t even know what a cable car consisted of<\/strong>; this is why we decided to show them immediately what it was all about,\u201d Calebasso explained. \u201cWe\u2019re in front of a cable car, which has strict safety rules and has three cables: the carrier, which holds up the car, the driver, and the emergency cable, for moving the emergency car. The emergency car is part of a system that has separate and reserve power supplies, that moves the emergency car to reach the cable car, when there are problems. In light of these manoeuvers, it\u2019s inconceivable that we would take on someone that, at a time of need, would have problems working at high altitudes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>However, this might not be the only reason that led to final choice<\/strong>. <strong>Giuseppe Ranzoni is originally from Monteviasco<\/strong>, right where the cable car goes, he knows the valley and mountains well, he knows the routes to get to the points where there is a panoramic view, the hamlet of Piero and everything there is to see in these parts. <strong>And he knows the three restaurants, \u201cIl Camoscio\u201d, \u201cIl Barchet\u201d and \u201cIl Vecchio Circolo\u201d<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s it; as well as operating the cable car, <strong>in the last few years, our work has also come to include giving information, explaining to tourists where they can eat and sleep<\/strong>, informing them of the days when the restaurants are closed,\u201d Alessio concluded. \u201cAfter all, this is what we live off, and so talking about our zone has also become part of our work.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The new operator does not suffer from vertigo and he knows the area; Giuseppe Ranzoni will begin service shortly.
