If You Could Just Wait All Day, That'd Be Good

We're changing cable companies/internet service providers. The behemoth we were using is all corporate and they don't seem to care because when we called to tell them the upstart competitor's deal, they said it couldn't be true. We read the fine print. It is true.

So, we're changing. No hard feelings, okay? It's just business. Capitalism and competition. Another reason America is a great country.

*salutes flag again, ignoring the secret port deal with the Arab nations*

But why does the upstart competitor tell us to be ready for an installation appointment beginning between the hours of 7AM and 4PM, which will take four hours to complete from the time they begin the installation, and someone will need to be there the entire time?

I guess with the burst of America I'm having today (ignoring the Team USA disappointing showing in hockey AND curling yesterday), I'll just say, "Yay, capitalism" and make sure someone is here waiting for somewhere between one and 13 hours.
