Our power company, PG&E, has always been pretty well screwed up. Over the years, I've known a number of people who worked for them. Two things I have always noticed are they are obscenely well paid, and every one of them had a parent who worked there. It's almost like they won't hire anyone but relatives of current employees. My grandson's wife is an electrical engineer and works there. She's just a few years out of college and she makes crazy money and benefits like I've never heard of anywhere else, not even in government jobs.
