We were in the studio with William Wilfong and his wife Hillary to talk about his typical day as an REC lineman & the impact it has on his family. We talked about his day during storm outages versus a typical spring day; the things he loves about his job, his schedule and even learned what causes the most non-storm related outages. Hillary gave us some insight into their family life; what stresses her out about his job; and she told us about his answer to “How was your day?”
