first buy yourself a generator
Second if it took them 7 hours to get it fixed then that’s how long it took be glad you got it back so soon I was without power for 10 days after Ivan. I spent over 10000.00 for a whole house generator to run everything all at once and haven’t needed once. That shows how good Gulf Power is in keeping the power on.
Electricity is a privilege people.. A luxury.. not something owed to us…. if you have never been or known a line man you might want to reserve your irritation since you are clueless about what could be involved restoring electricity. Replacing a pole just doesn’t happen in a few minutes.
Thanks Gulf Power workers for getting out and fixing someone’s mess. Not sure why Gulf Power getting the blame they didn’t make someone wreck.
It happened at 3:32am almost exactly, I had just looked at my clock. I find it absolutely ridiculous it took Gulf Power almost 7h to clear the scene and restore power. I hope the driver is found and nailed to the wall.
