Well here they go again. Definitely an extra sense of pride the guys feel when they head out to assist in state of an emergency. Prayers for our local Smith Power Line crews and all first responders who are currently out or headed out.
Another fun thing about this type of work for the guys is some of the calls I receive when they are traveling and or out there working. They range from "hey we just saw your companies trucks headed whatever direction on whatever interstate and they have a tool box open" or " I was at a light and your truck didn't stop at the light" so I get to inform said person what a work convoy sign is and that that is legit what that means- they travel together and do not separate. Lol. But, my favorites are like the one I already received today...." we saw your trucks and your men headed to Florida and we wanted to call and say thank you, we are praying and lifting them up." ❤️ We have had pictures sent, letters from kids and families. People love to bring them food and drinks often. Such a blessing the care and support that is sent out. Keith Butler Coker Paul Daniel Hatfield Bralon Hutchison Justin Kelly Matthew Hatfield you've already been sent gratitude and prayers this trip. Please share them with all the guys. Be safe and we are all grateful for your hard work, dedication and commitment! ❤️
