The attention whores who provide nothing to the common good and call out others on message boards.

Yes

A lineman wives vs. nurses debate instead of linemen vs. nurses would at least make sense

I know this was a troll, but it takes a real baw to get out in the worst conditions and restore power to people.

Nurses.

But the whole "Line Wife" movement is equally pathetic. The linemen themselves though are cool unless they make it their entire identity.

I’ve found that it’s not really the lineman themselves that post stuff for sympathy, it’s mostly their wives that do that.


Bc of course it is.

Nurses are today’s teachers.

“I can’t stay home, I’m essential” made me eye roll the first time i saw it.

Yeah, this. I have to say, I've seen lineman (or maybe it's their wives) with stickers on the back of their vehicles with the message "Linemen exist so firefighters can have heroes, too" and such. Every time I see one of these I think it's absurdly over the top.

Yes, nurses are clearly more of attention whores but for some reason linemen think they're on par with the military or something.

Never heard of linemen bragging about doing their jobs. They’re way more intelligent than nurses.

Linemen have never been a blip on the attention whore radar. I can’t say I’ve ever seen one post about their job on social media, most don’t post at all.

Bruh how you have a lack of respect for lineman in this weather is amazing. Seems your a bit of a cuhnt

Oilfield workers and their wives are the worst imo

Truth. Those guys work as swiftly and safely as possible. As do nurses. I don’t have Facebook so I can’t possibly know or care who is inappropriately complaining about which first world problem.
