I’ll just say this: he kicked a gate thinking nobody was home and ended up getting scolded and fined

    Alright so at an old job it was pretty windy and I was pulling into the parking lot when a tree branch snapped off and hit a power line, leaving the line on the ground right in the middle of the lot.

    I sort of angled my car (a decent ways away from the downed line) to block anyone from driving into/over it and asked to see if the building maintenance guy could put out some cones or barriers or something until the electric company could look at it.

    The maintenance guy walks out, sees the downed line, and picks it up. Then proudly proclaims it must not be connected to the grid, otherwise he’d be dead.
