(I keep thinking he's near lake Erie, but it's actually lake Ontario.)
Ummm... incredibly "near" Lake O.
..........
So, the telephone lineman(woman?... appearance and all, you know) was up on the
pole when I got back from ear-lowering addressing Hubs' phone problem from last
Friday.
Then, DSL goes out.
Person, ladder and truck gone.
Spent about an hour (mostly on HOLD) to report the problem is now worse and have the
DSL thing added to "the ticket".
The lineman(woman?... appearance and all, you know) comes back and I have to explain
the original problem from last Friday was "NO PHONE, HAVE(HAD) DSL". (Oh, and turns
out he is, indeed, a he,after I made reference so a "she" who messed up the DSL... time
to be mortified). HE was totally flummoxed how the DSL could work, but the phone not.
Not MY circus, not MY monkey. Took him 4 minutes to fix the phone line.
Ugh.
