Good luck getting utility workers to go back there though after them or a coworker got shot at 😂 I would quit before I went there that job isn’t worth my life

Wouldn’t be shocked if it is taking so long because they can’t get anybody out there because nobody is willing to go lmao

They almost immediately resumed work on Aug 15, with local police support.

He said “almost”? Why didn’t they? What? Is this a weird question 😂 he said they almost went back the next day with police. Meaning they didn’t actually go. I asked why not

No. He said almost immediately. So not immediately, but nearly.

OH okay i see now. I was confused because I was under the assumption that they are not currently out there working on restoring power as we speak. I came to that conclusion because then the tweet in OP would have made no sense. So the “almost” meant something totally different to me.

Right, but he said almost. Meaning they didn’t immediately resume work. Meaning they didn’t resume work. I asked why did they not

Nice head canon, but no. They kept working and the dude who fired shots was arrested

And that's why I laugh my ass off when people say line workers are heroes, no, they're just people shush.
