Cindy Bi ㊙️ (@CindyBiSV) reported from Palo Alto, CaliforniaSaddened by this “1st world” problem🥺 My first project at @Accenture was with @PGE4Me in their SF office in 2007 before it was cut short due to budgeting, and then, financial crisis hit... 🙏🏼

(((Liz Ditz))). Mask up, y'all. (@lizditz) reported from Redwood City, California@MistralWinds @ZroHour @PGE4Me I don’t understand how the outage blocks work—which I think map to distribution lines.
-
Elena (@Doingthangs) reported from Mountain View, California@GavinNewsom If you fired @PGE4Me, put a real infrastructure in place that actually accommodates the amount of people in nor Cal, your pushing electric on us but the system can’t handle it. So we need to suffer cuz @PGE4Me E can’t get it together?
-

Brian King of Demons (@bkbkbk) reported from Palo Alto, California@KQEDForum The @PGE4Me spokesperson bailing out of the show before anybody could call out their bullshit was incredibly weak of them. Shame.
-
Sloane Rosenthal (@SloaneRosenthal) reported from Los Altos Hills, California@bog_gdan @rolandelliart @PGE4Me They failed to properly shut down some of the high voltage lines in Sonoma County, one of which ignited the Kincaid fire.
-
Sloane Rosenthal (@SloaneRosenthal) reported from Los Altos Hills, California@PGE4Me I hate to break it to you, but you can’t open the windows when the air quality is the equivalent of torching a dumpster in downtown Beijing.
-
Andrew M. (@dondimonte) reported from Mountain View, California@PGE4Me if you want to get paid, why do you unilaterally switch people to paperless billing without their consent?? It is underhanded and really we should have better options than your cheesy power company. The state should put your franchise up for bid

-
Steve Chin (@SteveChin1) reported from Fair Oaks, CaliforniaHey @PGE4Me how about making the part of the grid that my house is on NOT the last one restored after a power outage. Frustrating to habitually see my back neighbor with power 14 hours before mine gets turned back on. Saturday was a pain.

-
Bubbba Buffett (@DickBuffett) reported@PGE4Me hiring llc companies to do your tree work increases your liability since they have limited liability. @CAgovernor as a utility, why are they allowed to do that? Presumably their job is maintaining the grid.

Cnglee (@Cnglee8) reported@StanleyRoberts @PGE4Me Hey Stanley, want to hear a good one? Before Christmas, we had a 12 hr outage. We lost all the prime rib, crab from Costco we just bought. We submitted a claim for $300. The rep called and said we’d get $200. Found out everyone got $200 for inconvenience. That is so messed up.
