I switched from WOW to comcast to gte a way better deal and the redzone channel.

So the guy was an hour late already. Gets here and he's just going on and on complaining about his job. Starts saying shit of why I don't have alandline and he thinks people without a landline are nuts.

He's looking at all the pictures on my walls and its just kinda creepy.

Getting setup in the master bedroom he looks at a poem that is framed and hanging on the wall. He reaches up and takes it off the wall so he can read it better. At this point I'm say "dude what the hell are you doing". Oh sorry I wanted to read it so I needed to see it better. I just say well just set the shit up and lets be on the way.

He also when on my computer to get it connected (I could have done that). He went to craigslist to look up how much a black lab would cost. WTF is that?

He also kept on making very strange noises and was just strange. Amazing this is the type of person comcast would want to do the setups.

At the end he kind of hung around like waiting for me to give him a tip. I said well have a good day its time for you to go.

No fucking tip for him. get the fuck out of my house

I'd complain, and I'd be on the lookout. There's some damn fools in this world.

Did you watch him the entire time or did he ask any weird questions about your work schedules? Could be like one of the exterminator dudes from breaking bad casing your house. That would be pretty wild to come home to a meth lab in your home. lol gl

Aren't most of these contracted out?


I've usually gotten independent contractors with Comcast, and they've always checked a few different websites to make sure my computer was connected properly. As weird as you thought the Comcast guy was, just image all of the weird shit he sees on a daily basis going into complete strangers homes.

As far as being late goes they've always given me a 4 hour window to arrive and they almost always show up 15-30 min. prior to the end of the time frame. Touching your things without asking is pretty uncalled for, although maybe you should post that poem and let us be the judge:) I usually give the guy a soda or a beer on the way out the door.

let us know when you get a phone call from comcast apologizing for not sending a installer out, and how they can't understand how your cable was activated and when would be a good time to reschedule.

not sure if you're in the position to call someone else off.

was he looking behind the framed poem for a safe?

Hate folks like that screwing around in my place. Ex gf of mine had her spot broken into, while she was home, because a maintence guy knew she was usually at school and tipped off a buddy. Sure enough, she wakes up in the morning with some dude stealing some of her DV equipment. Luckily dude just jumped back out the window he came in through.

I'm sure the guy meant no harm, however, Comcast would have no problem hearing your complaint and should easily provide you with a free month of service.
