Cookies?!?! What cookies??? Must have missed something cause I gots no cookies...

JuyceMan - Would have been happy if it was Comcast/Infinity. At least they try to compensate you when they don't show up. DirectTV has been excellent with their Cable service... twice stopping at the house to see if all is well and waiting on Internet to be installed. Century Link for Phone and Internet is a different matter. Customer Service and Installers have been great. But getting the order placed correctly with the Front Admin Office has been like putting a watermelon in a billiard table pocket.

The worst part about that is I can tell you from experience that if the infrastructure is in place it takes less than ten minutes to provision that and turn it up. At one point several years ago I managed six public class b adress spaces and over a quarter of a million phone lines. Seriously, that should be a ten minute job. That's what happens though when you want hire twelve dollar an hour techs instead of engineers. It's slow and backlogged.

Sorry about your pain. I hate cable/telco companies.

Hate is probably not a strong enough word...

Loathe

Despise

Would rather have rabid poodles rain from the sky and eat the flesh off my face than call tech support.

That's about right.

Cacman, you moved to the boonies in CO, correct?

My buddy bought a house in Winter Park, and he said everything involving labor works slooooowww. Plumbers, Electricians, cable company, etc.

Sucks about losing work over it, though. I HATE that!!
