Power outage

Hydro guy at door: they're about to cut off electricity for an hour, to replace a transformer.

Not the best weather for it, from several points of view. But I'm glad they gave me a bit of warning.

Oh my! That was considerate. It's sad that that kind of gesture surprises me.

Unfortunately, when they decide to replace these things in this weather, it's often because they don't HAVE a choice.
But at least you know...

Well, it's nice they replaced it instead of having it explode. It also gives you the chance to crank the heat up for those 15 minutes to warm the house up, as well as time to unplug electronics you have concerns might get damaged.

Such warning is definitely appreciated under those circumstances.

warnings are nice, funny that little polite actions are so rare

Warning is nice, and it could always be worse. You could have to be the poor sod up the hydro pole, doing the work.
