Kudos to Bescom Linemen Again

I am glad to inform all who were following this post, that problem that persisted with electricity outage was resolved completely. This time again, all the higher officials could not understand why I was making a fuss, when electricity was restored in the morning itself. I had to keep explaining them it was only temporary, this problem was not completely resolved to which the AEE asks me, what is temporary and what is permanent solution. I said your linemen took pity on us, and did a patch up repair job so that my water supply is not hit. I could not use my electric water filter nor could I fill my overhead tanks because power supply got disrupted yesterday evening itself.
The linemen came and so did the rain, they had a very broken patched up wooden ladder to support their climb. I was stunned they called it safety ladder. Unfortunately I could not click its picture. They waited for rain to subside, but to no avail, finally they traced the problem was due to line clubbing and said they will need 10mm lead wires measuring 2m to finish the job. I asked them to get it and finish the job once and for all.
Finally they completed this dangerous task by climbing the fragile wooden ladder, adeptly multitasking with ease. Linemen requested that I do not click their pictures. They did not do anything less than a circus feat. He climbed the pole like an athlete pole climber and attended wires with single hand(thank god they get to request power off during such repairs), holding the poles with other hand and two feet. God I was praying that this job finishes without casualties.
How many times have you seen linemen ignore all lurking dangers and climb with so much agility for few bucks. I will always pray for linemen and keep posting articles daily on my blog. Will surely want BESCOm to take note of their plight. I would not be comfortable if I get to learn that a lineman died fixing my line, so that I could use my cooler.
Humanity survives and saves you, only if you save and let it survive.
