Followed 3 of there trucks on the interstate near 84th st in omaha 2/25/21 640am. All of there lights worked, they were spaced out well not nose to tail. They used turn signals and didn't have dirt/rocks flying off. Someone obviously is doing something right training and keeping trucks in good condition.

Almost was killed by truck 2553 off highway 50 on 8-8-2018 at 1:45pm. Pulled right out in front of me in a 65 mile-an-hour Zone, causing me to not only almost hit the truck but he also flung a huge rock at my windshield chipping it. I would have liked to have maintained a safe distance but your driver made that impossible by choosing to turn.

Heimes Corporation working for AT&T placed an 811 request (#181720196) to have all of the services marked and this was completed during the week of June 18 through June 22 in front of my property. The excavation work by the business in front of my home completed on July 20 with the removal of street barricades. I have been in contact with a manger (Tim Tucker) at the business regarding the removal of the Nebraska One-Call markings. Mr. Tucker agreed to get back to me regarding my concern regarding abatement during the active project on July 10.
All of the barricades were picked up on July 20. While all of the holes dug were refilled, the magenta paint put down by Heimes was not removed. Mr. Tucker denied my request saying that the area is the responsibility of the City of Omaha. Heimes is not a utility company. Therefore, this paint should have been removed placing the area back to its original condition per easement holder's responsibility.

This summer there was a crew in my neighborhood doing some boring. The underground pipes etc were understandably marked before they started digging. The only problem is they didn't actually start digging until several weeks after they were marked. So I mowed and replaced the 20 some little flag markers about 6 times until they actually started work (annoying). After they finally got around to it, they placed the excess dirt in a mound on my grass, the gentlemen then proceeded to stake a tarp over the dirt and left it there for several more weeks.
This effectively killed portions of my lawn. I didn't understand what was taking them so long to complete this project. Every time I looked outside they were just standing around. I had to actually go and ask them if they were ever planning on removing this dirt from my property. What could have taken a few days took 5 weeks! Who is paying for this? They were completely unprepared and unprofessional.
