The local power distribution company has a long lasting record of failures and incompetence. It must, in my opinion and my experience, be run by a bunch of accountants who are clueless about electricity! Multiple times today power has been lost. The entire town seems to be down.
They have bumped up the rates by 20% and reduced the service I fell by even more. Sounds like the local cable provider. It seems that any entity governed by a Utility Commission just does not give a damn.
Equipment fails, replacement parts are unavailable and repair crews are lost in translation.
We are relying more and more on electricity. The companies are populated with less than average folks in an industry which will allegedly explode with AI. This will lead to total disasters!
Pity!
