The call to Comcast:
Internet is down. It’s still down.

My phone is VoIP. No IP, no Vo. I use Mark’s phone to call Comcast.

“Are you calling about inactive equipment charges on your bill? If so, press 1.”

I’m not so I wait.“Are you calling about inactive equipment charges on your bill? If so, press 1.”

Note to self: check bill.

Eventually transferred to the next queue.

“Did you know you can check for outages in your area at xfinity.comcast.com?”

Me: …are you serious?...

Eventually told there is an outage in my area and it is being worked on.
