Winter Storm Mara - Restoration Efforts

Just do your job during the rest of the year and you won’t have to work in a winter storm ???

So why were no trees trimmed beforehand???

I feel for the workers, but Austin Energy needs to let the PR people step aside RIGHT NOW and we need to hear from management top brass about how they are going to be accountable. Four days without power, and it took three days to get any update from them. Then, the "update" was a PR-department written email about how great they have done under such terrible circumstances (for them. . .). To the thousands of people without power, that is not an update, that is an insult. I want results and real updates from real people, not PR people.

Funny thing is my warehouse got power back before my grandparents and great grandparents home that’s 10 mins away. Priorities all fucked up

So everyone keeps saying feel sorry for the ground crew-no, not at all. A worker who does his job receives no criticism, a worker who sees an issue and says nothing, his fault. A worker who does NOTHING and whose crew does NOTHING to prevent NOTHING, deserves NOTHING!

THIS IS WHY THE CITY COUNCIL ARE NOW INVESTING YOU IDIOTS!! GIVE US OUR POWER BACK NOW!!!

Call NORTHWEST ENERGY in Montana so you IDIOTS can learn how to properly cut a tree in a DECENT TIME

3 days without power last week, I just restocked all the food I had to throw out and power goes out again! With a planned restoration of sunday? 5 days from now! I've lived in 4 states, hands down the worst power company I've seen, an absolute failure and disgrace.
