A Man or
Woman who puts their life on the line daily to keep the lights on so that others may enjoy the luxury of electricity. Also referred to as lineman. They climb wood poles with hooks and work hot secondary from the pole or hot primary from a hot board. Sometimes these Woodwalkers spend hours standing on hooks to restore power. They also work out of bucket trucks. These men and
woman are the backbone of America. With out their dedication many
people would die during winter and summer months.
Food would have to be stored in a different manner, I wouldn't be typing on a computer charged by the electricity they provide, and you wouldn't be on level 58 on whatever
dumb game you're playing.
Jack: "I can't believe the
power went out after that storm"
Buddy: "Quit your bitchin!!! The woodwalkers are here away from their families to restore the
power so your mom can charge her secret toy"
