Last time I had a provider's person canvassing the neighborhood to upsell internet speed, I just told him that as soon as everyone logged on after school was out, his promise was meaningless. I can actually tell when the kids are home, because the internet speed is noticeably slower. All those pink(ish) pics, I guess. I had another guy recently trying to tell me that they could hook the fiber from the street to my house. Rolleyes I (nicely, believe it or not) explained that I'm retired, and I hadn't seen anyone pulling fiber in the neighborhood.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
