Lineman not afraid of JVM

Reported on August 19, 2011 from Jaipur , Rajasthan  ι Report #4540

I had also paid a bribe to a area Lineman. It was around 02:00 A.M. in the night, when our electricity supply just get disconnected, due to some fault at the electric pole, whereas all our neighbors didn't suffered from this problem.
I visited to the nearby Office but the in-charge over there told me to go to the main office in S.F.S.
Then i went there & bought a Lineman with me who asked to pay him at-least Rs. 500, or he will not climb up the pole to check-out the default.
I even told him to report at the Higher Authority of Jaipur in return of which he answered me that just do what i want & if i complained, he will told the Higher Authority that the connection can only be repaired in the morning.
He said either you wait till morning or pay me Rs. 500, and we finally paid him the amount so as to get the connection alright.

What is your reaction after reading this report?
