He really excoriated PG&E-- it was great to hear it.

Plus, their stupid e-mails said it could take 1-5 days...DAYS...to turn the power back on. Someone needs to teach them a little humility. And customer service.

(22,899 posts)Sorry you had to go through that, wryter2000 -- all because of their GREED and MISMANAGEMENT. I did not know that they had the means to upgrade their grid-- many times-- and declined. After all, they want to keep those profits high!
I thought our governor's speech was fantastic-- it's about time someone called them out without apology or pulling punches.
