What is it about our street that our power is always going out?
As I sit here in the dark, again, and look around at my neighbors down the street enjoying their lights and TV, I wonder what it is about our street that loses power for what seems like every month. Is there a bad transformer that needs to be replaced? A bad circuit breaker? Why can’t it be fixed? Are we overloaded and need another transformer?
It wouldn’t be so bad if it weren’t for my Internet business. Actually, it’s not that bad because I have learned that the power is not the most reliable here. I have eight hours of backup power for my web servers.
Today has been especially trying. ATT internet was down during business hours today and my company lost $30k in revenue because of it. Not even five hours after getting my internet connection restored the power goes out.
It’s been a nice day.
