Does anyone else notice this stuff besides me.

You are not alone, I notice anything out of square, plumb, level etc.

I will go out on a limb here and say from my obsessive observations that the primary cause of 'leaning pole syndrome' or LPS [Linked Image] is the lack of proper guys or incorrect wire tension.

A great book that I used to have was the "American Lineman's Handbook" it showed proper techniques for guying.

The books position was any change in the direction of the conductors no matter how slight required a guy wire to oppose that force.

As far as the large pots it is kind of scary how much is hanging up there sometimes.
