| I had the cable guys come to bury some cables that were strung all over my back yard. I offered water, coffee, soda, then beer. They finished the job and put the 6 beers I put out in their pockets and left. I hope I made their day!! I used to do apartment matenance and got lots of free beer and a couple of dinners. Do you guys give workers stuff? |

A couple of years ago we had a major ice storm, and crews from St. Louis came to restore our power in Overland Park. They were actually out there working during the Rams/Patriot Super Bowl. I offered to let them come in and watch the game, but they were all humpin' to get the work done. I made sure that they had plenty of hot and cold drinks, and that if they needed anything, just ask. Oh, yeah. My Dad was a lineman for Kansas City Power & Light for >20 years, so I have a soft spot in my heart for utility workers. |
