Damned if you do!
Yeah not quite, what gave it away? That's an old one from back when I had to do that stuff rather than talk about it in. We were in Adelanto, California.

I was wondering if you might be in that last one or taking it.
Linemen are a different breed. They tie knots and eat a sandwich at the same time while dangling from a helicopter.
No injuries on my watch, Plants. Not one in 22 years. That one's special, I'm proud of that one. Pura didn't understand but has since been around many wiremen with me and they all attest, they'll initiate the conversation even. I'm the only one they know who's done that. 👊🏼
That is pretty damn amazing. Did I ever tell you an old friend from my retail days lost her lineman husband on the job? It was a tough loss. Their son was only about 2 or 3 at the time. They got together after she and I stopped working together, so I never met him, but everything I saw about him pointed to a stand-up dude.
Now you did.
That's horrible, I hate hearing those stories. It's a high risk profession. God bless'em.
I know. He did have two older boys from his first marriage, and the youngest gets to see them often. Heartening to see the bond that they have as brothers that I'm sure helps them cope with such a tough loss.
