i'm stuck with comcast... they're straight up trash smh

My internet is fantastic and in 4 years at this location only 1 outage for like 6 hours but I just feel that my bill should be no more than $75 ish and $130 for internet is just retarded..... They and AT&T were the only options and were about equal pricing but now this kid Sonic is in town offering $60 a month....maybe I can use that as bargaining power and get Comcast to renew me at an introductory offer again or something.

Sometimes I feel like trashing it at home entirely and only working where there is free wifi or checking out a...whatchamacallem from the library. A hotspot? I'd rather pay for unlimited data on my phone if I had to choose.

Anyone got a time on the food choice survey?

!!! They sent this along with a mild threat that if I miss ONE single picture, I'll get my qual yanked. Other than that, they love me. :ok:

I couldn't do that again and survive lol.... I did that at Starbucks when I was homeless but there is no way I could make the money I make now....shit I wouldn't even come close to paying my bills if I tried that again.

Throw on a pair of cat ears, they'll never suspect.

ehh and then there is the fact that internet is my "tool" and $130 a month is nothing at the end of the day especially comparing it to all the tools I bought as a builder..... I think I just hate greed and see Comcast as nothing but greed.
