Considering the length of recent outages in my neighbourhood, which is in between two main substations in Canada's third largest metropolitan region, I'm ashamed to admit that I once worked for those bastards for 20 years around here doing what they don't seem to be able to do now - keeping your lights on!
Before they gutted their crews of travelling operators during those massive early retirements of the downsized eighties, we could get your lights restored after an outage in a built-up suburban area in about half to three-quarters of an hour, depending on traffic and weather conditions. It seldom if ever took us three and a half or four hours, or three days to restore your service after a relatively routine storm. Have today's replacements forgotten how, or did they ever really know how to move their asses when the lights go out, and get those feeder circuits restored to normal? This kind of recent extended outages is ridiculous! These people need a good kick in the ass to start them breathing, and get them in touch with why they're there.
Meanwhile, Folks, remember: "Live Better Electrically - Carry A Flashlight!"
