If I was ANY utility from the south, I’d turn my crews around. If Huntsville isn’t good enough for them, then none of us are. Where were all these union thugs after the April 2011 tornado outbreak in Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and Tennessee?
Those utility workers in Huntsville, Decatur, and elsewhere busted their butts to restore power after the massive damage that those tornadoes dealt to those areas.
Looks like the offending union entity might be Seaside Heights, NJ’s own electric power system.
Quoting from their web site:
“”The Borough of Seaside Heights owns and operates the electric utility for Seaside Heights. The electric department consists of a crew of three workers who maintain the towns entire electrical system and one office worker.””
I hope that Seaside Heights sits in the dark for a long, long time. In the meantime, I think that any larger utility would welcome the help, and even though there might be a bit of dissonance between crews at, e.g., Jersey Central Power & Light and Huntsville, they’d certainly be receptive to have experienced line workers out there putting things back together.
