Why are some people so averse to posting links? The “fallacy of appeal to authority” has to be assumed in the age of google. If you make a statement that requires us to believe your facts, try and find some supporting documents.
Here is the story on the linemen who worked 60 to 80 hours a week. Working with high power lines is far more dangerous than playing football but I don’t see anyone incensed over their pay..
Read the details before assuming these people are overpaid. I have known linemen who died on the pole and one was a relative with 4 small kids.
