Arthur Booker+FollowCould Power Outages Be the New Normal?Here’s a wake-up call for anyone who likes their lights on: The Columbia River dams, which power much of the Northwest, are running low on staff after a wave of early retirements and hiring freezes. This isn’t just office drama—fewer hands on deck means more risk of outages and slower fixes if things break. Think of it like ignoring your car’s check engine light: eventually, you’ll pay for it. If you live in the area, now’s a good time to double-check your emergency kit! #EnergyCrisis #Hydropower #Northwest #PowerGrid #LifeHacks #Business00Share
