    Default BC Hydro Punishes

    Featured Sponsor

    BC Hydro just suspended 3 linemen involved in an terrible contact accident. The groundman got 3 days,brother who lost his hand got 14 days off and the crew leader 18 days. He has sight problems now because of the contact.
    Another brother who fell 25' from a pole got 8 days off, and his crew leader duties revoked for 3 months. He won't be back for 4-6 months. Once again hydro gets it wrong.

    Mostly likely the reason for his supension.... not wearing it.

    Hard to feel sorry for them with out specifics from the incidents.

    Say nothing of the fact that 14 days is nothing compared to what he has to live with now without one of his hands??!!
