SMECO goes woke.....

Someone probably hung a political or rebel flag, so easiest thing to say is don't touch our poles.

Should anyone really be touching anyone's pole without prior consent? No means no you know.

Last home I owned I owned up to and including the street curb. Utilities had an easement along the street, they had permission to place a pole for their respect service but not to advertise on my property.

So, are you saying putting up an American Flag is advertising?

My ex never complained about anything on the poles, just the neighborhoods he had to work in. West Baltimore mostly.

Yeah. Fun places.

My worst was just off of West Virginia Avenue. We were taking a lunchbreak when a bunch of Black SUVs, and two marked vans pulled in with DEA guys with rifles jumping out and kicking in doors.

Dinner and a Show.

It's not really a safety issue.

As someone who did that years ago, they usually just climb past stuff on the pole, but if belted, it's a delay or annoyance, at worst, to have to un-belt and re-belt over objects. But in reality they have to do it over the Cable TV lines, Phone Lines, guide wires etc. anyway.

And these days, very few linemen are exiting the bucket to be climbing poles.

SMECO is making communities who have hung American flags on their poles "with permission from SMECO" to remove them because they offend "some" people. WTF

I figured that would happen sooner or later. The United States is quickly losing sight of who we are as a Nation.
