That's what the power companies said.

So.................If they were working for FEMA, did they show their W-4 form, showing they were hired by FEMA?

Did they provide a time card showing the number of hours worked?

 

[initforme]

Just think if every lineman walked off....they could get whatever they asked for.

The utility companies were not hired by FEMA.

ASHEVILLE, N.C. (WLOS) — News 13 took several calls on Wednesday, Oct. 30 from linemen who said they were not being compensated, despite having worked long hours over several weeks.

They gathered in the old Sears parking lot off South Tunnel Road after the work stoppage began at 7:00 a.m. on Wednesday.

The company, Next Era Communications, contracted crews and bucket trucks from across the country beginning in early October to help Western North Carolina rebuild after Helene.


Miguel Burgos, who owns Next Era, told News 13 that Next Era is contracting with MasTec, who is contracting with Spectrum.

He said his people have not been paid for work they did between October 7-13 despite entering into a payment term called a Net 14 with MasTec, which they told News 13 would have them paid 15 days after they filed their first invoice.

Just before 12:30 p.m., better news came in.


Reid said his crews would take the rest of the day and return to work Thursday after the money comes in.

Work stoppage resolved after linemen demand full compensation for recovery efforts

[Hollie]

No shit.

So............Why are they complaining about FEMA?

FEMA provides funds to utility co-ops to be used to pay staff to restore utilities.

It's on tbe FEMA website. Why are you too lazy and incompetent to learn the facts.
