City Public Service is neither Public nor a Service. Discuss.

City Public Service is our Electric Utility. The power goes out where I am at LEAST twice a month. Its nothing exciting like the California Energy crisis of last year...CPS just sucks. I grew up in a town of 10,000 peeps. I can remember about 3 times in 18 years our power ever went out. In SA it goes out all the time. I was in the grocery store last week and it went out. A few months ago I was driving down I-10 and everything on the left side of the freeway went black. This morning it went out at my apt. WTF is that? It doesnt matter where I live in this town - its always been spotty since Ive lived here. Does ya'lls power go out alot?
