"I was chatting with a gentleman who worked for Hydro One for 16 years and he said this happens all the time."

With all the buzz about skyrocketing hydro costs, an alert reader in Huntsville snapped this photo.

Erin Reid says the truck, with a pair of awake employees inside, was parked there when she left her house at 9 a.m. but they were sleeping when she returned home four hours later.

She says the truck hadn't moved.

"They were parked there this morning at 9 when I left my house, I was behind them and honked my horn. They had no 4-ways on or pylons out. I left for the day and when I got home they were still parked there and had their flashing lights on. I shook my head and checked my mail. I had an $800 hydro bill so I drove back and took pics. I wish I had gotten out of my car to take the picture because they were both sound asleep."

Reid added, "I was chatting with a gentleman who worked for hydro one for 16 years and he said this happens all the time."
