No CB750 under that pole = a good day.
You get to go home early to boot.

 Actually I had to stay there most of the day, couldn't get all the cars in once they started fixing things, so I was there most of the day not even working..
 Got to watch my former shopmate run his crane unloading the truck that took down the pole..

The truck guy didn't even feel the pole shear off just saw the wires moving over in the mirrors.

Electricity, cranes, you didn't have to do the work.  Only thing that could have made it better was pulling up a lawn chair and a six pack.
I'm an individual,  just like everyone else.
