Yard is cleaned up after 2 days, they have to put down some top soil over the hole and plant grass.
Still a lot of work to do, but it's going in the right direction. And my insurance agent has a sweet deal with the tree guys and said I may not have to pay a penny of the $1000 deductible, getting back to me on Monday.
They are coming back to do roof repairs after getting shingles and supplies, I have to get my own interior work people. I didn't offer to do anything myself being it's an insurance claim.
So today, all afternoon, I waited patiently for Comcast to come and put up a new cable line. I called them yesterday and scheduled for today after 12 noon to be sure we had enough time to get power restored first. The girl said between 12 noon and 7PM which sounded real strange. It's usually a 2 hour window.
By 6:35 nobody showed up and I called Comcast again. Another girl answered and I asked what's up with the delay here?
She said that they rescheduled for tomorrow and they could come either AM or PM. So I'm starting to get a tad upset and asking why the hell it was rescheduled and why couldn't they have called me and why can't they give me a two hour window like they always did before?
She says that I still have service. I told her the cable was severed by a falling tree just like I told the other girl the day before. Then she says that her report indicates I still have service.
I tell her I was very specific that the line was down from a severe storm and she says, 'oh, you mean down on the ground?'
WTF do these idiots think a line is down means?
So then, I'm on hold for 17 fucking minutes while she changes the work order and says they will be there tomorrow between 12 and 2 for sure this time.
I hate calling Comcast for anything, their phone people are horrible to deal with. And they aren't cheap. The service guy always says they know the phone people suck so tomorrow I'm going to try to get the guy's card so I can bypass their ridiculous "help" desk the next time.
Then I get a robocall from Comcast about rating the call I just completed, but you can't rate yesterday's idiot so I just hung up. They suck. The service guy lives a mile away and I know he does cable work on the side. I'm going to be real friendly tomorrow. From 6 feet away, of course.
