Just got back from dinner - we are so full! Tomorrow is an easy day - hooray!
The kid, cat, chapstick story is a classic. Posted last night how much the wife and I laughed about it. Brought back stories of some of the things our kids did.

We need a place where special post's like that can be saved in an archive.

It said people made a bit of money on OT. Frankly, you deserved every single penny of it and more for the committed response folks like you had in getting life back to normal after the storm. If the company is whining about having to fork out OT, too bad. They played the odds in keeping lower numbers of skilled people on staff to be prepared for something like that, and it put the load on you guys when the poo hit the fan. They are lucky to have you to step up when it happened.
I just read the article (yes I have today off, I have a date with a wood chipper and three trees today) but those 10 guys that made the paper, in my opinion are gonna ruin it for the rest of us. They overdid it in my eyes. I made half of what the lowest guy listed made and I feel I worked WAY TO MUCH OT last year. It seemed like I averaged 2-3 weekends last year, guess I should of worked 4 of them and made the paper too.

Money is like a drug and some people can get addicted to the OT and the money just like drugs. But me I would rather have my time off and have my son know who I am.

Thanxs for the good words on my commitment to the customers and getting the power back on, but there is a line that can be crossed and considered excess and I don't plan on crossing that, did I say I like spending off time with my family and friends.

Media says ya'll made over $100,000 in overtime during last storm, your mattress must be overstuffed and pretty lumpy [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Thanks for all your hard work, don't know what I would have done without internet and tv, Hummmmm, maybe get some things done around the house [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
Yes, most of us averaged $10,000 from the last Dec. storm.

Really doesn't matter a whole heck of a lot what they have to say one way or the other. Talk at the coffee counter during and after that storm recovery was of how hard the "linemen" were working and how it was appreciated. The crisis is now over and the monday morning quarterbacks will attack from all sides. Some will be claiming management was ill prepared because there was not enough repair material on hand or not enough crews available or response time was slow or - - well it goes on forever. Others will scream about "I saw whole truck load of men just setting there for an hour" or things to that effect. These people don't know, and don't care, about having to wait for lines to be heated up or taken down and all the other delays that occur. The thing to realize, and I hope you convey this to your fellow workers, is the vast majority of the clear thinking people realize the effort you and your coworkers put forth during that time. It was appreciated then and has not been forgotten now.
