I have no wires and I must scream

[pbray]

The helpful Verizon crew completed their work on the utility pole but not before knocking out my DSL service. Once I discovered this I called the tech support number, who seemed unable to grasp the concept that DSL was working right up until the moment that their guys started fiddling around. I suspected cause/effect, while customer service wanted to ask me if I'd installed a new modem recently or upgraded my software....

So, I have no DSL, and had to relocate elsewhere to finish up the day job. And I have to set my alarm for OMG tomorrow in order to get to the site to start the database loads at 6AM. Then scurry home to meet a service tech who is going to arrive between 8AM and Noon... if I'm good.

Grr and argh.

I don't know what the cable service you have is like (Comcast, maybe?), but I refuse to go with Time Warner; the worst DSL days are better than them. Their customer service makes a used car dealership look like heaven.

TW is our local service as well.
