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?

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
