08:30 pm - Waiting for Godot

My DSL is out. Naturally, this irritates me, because I like the internet.

Qwest promises to have man here between 1 and 5 pm. This is a sadly wide range of time, but that is life, and I accept it, and scuttle my Saturday.

5:45 and no one has come. Sighing, I accept that fate has shat upon me, and track down Qwest's number to re-schedule for tomorrow. If i don't get the modem serviced this weekend I won't have a chance to wait around again until thurs-- no wait, I have that thing at noon... until NEXT weekend.

Mr. Automated man impresses me by taking my choices with voice recognition instead of push-a-button and then informs me that their support line closes at 6 PM, and I have to call back tomorrow.

God damnit! *shakes fist*
I expect service! If I wanted to be treated like shit I'd have signed up for Comcast!
