  Do I need to have a southern accent to become a Lineman?

  I was a Lineman for 28 years but had an accident and was hit by 7200 volts.I'm blessed to be here.

  Hardest part of being a lineman is the other lineman.  It’s a trade that attracts alphas or guys who think they are alphas.  I’ve seen it a lot where a guy is more concerned at puffing out in front of the other guys rather than teaching.  I go out of my way to teach a guy it’s the right and safe thing to do

  32 years retired.  Went to DOT utility inspector now. The crews that I look over are the BEST!!!! It takes a real man to be a lineman.  TY FOR WHAT YOU DO,, YOU ARE YOUR BROTHERS KEEPER. BE SAFE.

  I love seeing videos like this that showcase the people behind the power grid. It's clear that the employees of this cooperative are passionate about what they do and truly care about the communities they serve. Great video!

  Hi, I'm Jorge, it's great how you show being a lineman and the pride it provokes, I'm Chilean, I'm also a lineman, seeing how they work, they really want to work in the US, although it's just a dream, it's very difficult, greetings to all and keep putting strength into your work

  Proud to be a retired lineman and never used a bucket. Stayed on climbing crews.
