In the south their mortality rate is a lot higher than the North for a lineman. But these super huge companies want southerners in the foreman and GF ranks in their companies? And they preach safety. They consider Northerners as dumb stupid and lazy, the ones I have met so far. Everyone of the says"we really work in the south!". Everyone of them has said that.
So since they die at higher rate? Does that mean they work at a 48% higher rate?
they scream and holler more than Northern guys. Northern guys get along better. Work tighter and care about eachother more. I never thought that as a bad thing..
what at do these big companies want? They say they want this, but who they hire as running jobs is another thing.
i have yet to see better lineman than my friends I have. If a good lineman screams, cries, likes to bellyache drama, and is unprepared always, and drive foreign cars, hands down they are better lineman.
