I don't get it. Some woman posted on FB that her husband is a lineman from an outstate utility company sent down to Florida and has had only ONE sandwich in 2 days. The plea is "if you see a lineman in Florida, offer him/her water and food". Huh?
OK, nice gesture to offer something to the people sent in to help and I would certainly do that but if I was a utility worker driving a truck in to help restore power, I'd have had cans of food, bread, chips, cases of water, etc. stuffed into every nook and cranny of my truck. I would be going in there prepared for the worst case scenario. Great if you can get a hot meal at a shelter where you're sleeping or some ice for dealing with the temps/humidity, but if you haven't thought ahead and go in empty handed, well...... This applies to the company management sending them down there as well. Wasn't there a plan for feeding these guys? I mean, they're working 16 hr shifts and it makes sense to have support people with them so they don't have to scrounge for sustenance and have the strength to do a tough job in high temps/humidity. Am I missing something or is the poster citing an isolated incident? Anybody else heard anything about this?

It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
