So, the cable guy was just here

Recommended Posts

My service stopped suddenly during Monday Night Football so I called to see what was going on.

He changed out the boxes and remotes. Turns out, someone from the new apt complex behind me cut into my line with a splitter.

>:(

I was so pissed at my cable company for letting this happen I threatened switching to Direct TV. Nevermind lol

Edited to add: I went off on him and I feel bad because he's just the repair guy.

Sorry about your truck.

If this story doesn't turn pornographic soon, I'm going to be very disappointed.



I don't go porn with cable guys. I'm into the UPS delivery girls.

Had a guy do that in a duplex we owned once...he'd cut into the other sides cable AND telephone lines...was taping all their calls...watching their premium cable and likely bugged their computer traffic.

Gets WORSE! :o

I caught him because the 'good' tenant asked me about the 'surveillance camera' in the eves facing his deck with the jacuzzi.

Found all the wiring in the attic...'bad guy' had picked the lock on the access door. :S

Why would you be mad at the cable company or even the dude that found and fixed the problem. They are not the f#@k nut that put the splitter in creating your issue? If anything go and bust the balls of the jacka$$ that caused the issue.. Are you just mad it took a few days to gt to fix your issue?

People do stupid things but I guess I am missing the point where the cable company created this issue causing you to get mad at them???

Sure hun, c'mon. Let's walk over there and confront these people. You tell them not to steal cable. :S

I was irritated because they should have known what was going on with the problem before they got here.

Did I not say I felt bad for getting mad at the repair guy?

Edited to add: We pay extra for them to detect theft.
