Just to let everyone know that we are open. An A**hole decided to dig with a backhoe next door to us at the Cumberland farms parking lot. He severed all of the downtowns underground lines because he did not use dig safe . We have no phone or credit card capability for the next day

Oh man , that guy is gonna pay through the nose to have those lines repaired. got to be an idiot not to use digsafe!

there is a reason that calling Dig Safe is the law...:doh:

They are installing fiber optics up 91 in the Springfield area . . . about a month ago they severed a 36" water main with the Ditch Witch they were pulling cable with . . . "Dig Safe" missed marking the main :o

Sure are idiots.
Last week i had an appointment on 6A in east sandwich. I am just about there and the fire trucks come blastin by me and stopped on the side of the road about 100yds up the street . As I come by i wonder what all the to do is about as I don't see any sign of trouble. I creep by them with the windows down and hear this loud hissin sound like a freight train comin down the street and the smell of GAS. Meathead in a backhoe diggin along side the street in the woods wailed the gas line. Cop was behind me to shut 6A down. My appointment was 75 yards the other way. Took me a half our to go all the way out to rte6 and around.

Thats funny, N-Star did the exact same thing here in Falmouth yesterday. 600 pair telephone cable got cut with a auger, theve been working on it since yesterday afternoon. They had to truck in extra cable from NY at 3am this morning because they had none in Mass. Lots of custumers out, and they'll blame Verizon for sure.
