I started with contractors, but have worked for city utilities most of my career. It seems that benifits are better than investor owned utilities bcause they don't have to answer to wall streets BS. Any other city lineworkers out there?

Hi Harry... I work as a municipal lineman in Marblehead, MA. I know that there are a few others that post here as well. I love the benefits, and the fact that the service territory is limited. You really get to know the system that you are orking on.
