PG&E Wives IBEW 1245 Brothers & Sisters

PG&E Wives IBEW 1245 Brothers & Sisters Est. Jan. 2010 Like many other nights since he began this career of a Lineman. And Support for our daily struggles be them big or small.

A few years ago my husband was working endless hours on Storm Damage as I sat on my bed in the middle of the night praying he was safe and wondering when he might be coming home. When he first started with PG&E I really had no clue what was in store for us and our life. It was a long few years of learning how to cope, having a new baby girl, with many nights of him working and feeling alone even t

hough my family and friends tried their best to understand. No one can truly understand the stress and devotion us wives undertake being a LineWife, except for others living this Line Life. Now, having adapted to the unique struggles of my Husbands career, I wish that there had been someone who could have been there for me sooner to try to make things just a little bit easier. When I made the page I was looking to connect with a few other Wives who could understand what things were like for me, and to feel like I wasn't the only one up late during storms glued to the weather radar or making coffee at 2am for those emergency call outs. Or at least not the only Mom who wipes away those tears from those little faces asking why Daddy is working late again, and going to meetings and school functions as if I was a single parent. Since starting the page I have been so lucky to have so many extraordinary women join looking for the same thing I was. It is a page for people seeking Strength in numbers, courage when they run out and need some help, a Sisterhood where they can come where they know they will be understood. I am just one girl trying to be supportive of my husband and this life being a LineWife, I didn't realize so many others needed it too. The one fact is that we are all looking for the same thing I was, Strength~Sisterhood~Support. I never thought this page born out of frustration and loneliness would turn into such an awesome community, but I am so pleased that it has! As this is a public page, it is open to all

This will be my last post as PG&E Wives IBEW 1245 Brothers and Sisters.
Thank you for being an important part of my story.
A lot of my life’s chapters have been written alongside me running PG&E Wives….nearly 15 years worth. Many highs and lows and lots of in betweens.
You guys have been a tremendous source of inspiration and strength, and also some heartbreaking sorrow, I treasure all of that, and each of you that I have been able to form friendships with over all these years. I need to shift my priorities and simplify my life. Our LU1245 will have my Brother’s Keepers stickers available from now on, I hope that you continue to request them and wear them for the ever important reminder - always work safe so that you go home to those you love and remember our fallen brothers who were taken much too soon.
I hope that you all continue to network between yourselves and continue to be encouraging to one another, understanding and helpful as I have seen you do thousands of times through comments, posts and messages….it really is something special.
Try to keep Quality Not Quantity (time spent with those you cherish) as a priority and please, stay safe always.
Yours truly,

Advice please for an anonymous poster👇🏻
“Journeyman lineman
I have a job opportunity with PGE for GC in San Carlos
Does anyone have any experience with this area or know anyone I could talk to. Wondering if making the jump from outside line would be worth it.
Thank you”
