I've been hearing alot about these folks just sitting in parking lots for a very long time.
the relief workers that are driving in are required by law to rest after a certain amount of driving time. So a lot of them drive down and cannot work right away. therefore they sit.
also, some sleep in their trucks. Others dont, but they park them all together. It could easily look like they are just sitting around, when indeed they are off of work.

All are working 16 hour shifts. I have a serviceman friend who has a tree on his house, no power and two small kids and a wife at home. He hasn't even seen them since Minday night because he's in Jefferson Parish fixing others power. I believe all need to realize these guys work hard and long for you while having to ignore their own personal circumstances.
Patience is a virtue.
I'm going tomorrow to cut the tree off his house.

From what I understand the rest requirement can be waived in emergency situations. I'm not sure if me sitting in a dark hot house, being able to smell the stench of my sweaty balls counts as an emergency though.
