Phone is working!
Wow, this has to be a record for phone repairs for me. I was only without service for 3 hours. I didn’t expect service for at least two days. I thought I would have a lot of things to write about here, but the phone company gave me nothing this time.
Well, that was extremely short-lived. Since I have written this, the phone man has been out five more times. My lines were crossed. It reminded me of a Seinfeld episode, but a Chinese lady was not involved. I had a very angry man who thought I was trying to listen in on his conversations. He then got on the Internet and all I could hear was his modem. Yes, people still use dial-up. I live in a rural area so you can do that or a satellite. I have the satellite and it can be a nightmare in itself.
The phone man told me I would not be hearing that man on my phone again. I hope he is correct. It definitely is creepy having someone listen in on your phone calls.
The poor phone man, I saw him out here again on Saturday. I didn’t call him though. I guess other people are still having problems. My phone is still not normal, I have a buzzing sound but I’m not complaining about it.
