So, today I got home from work and wanted to check my email. Unfortunately for me, the internet was out. This makes at least two weeks solid where the internet has been out for more than an hour per day. It seems to have started back around the time when we had the fires out here, but that may just be the first time that I can remember. Calling Charter was a huge waste of time. The person on the phone acknowledged that the signal to my house was crappy, but refused to send someone out unless I was here when they came. Since next week is an RDO week, I scheduled them for next Friday morning. Hopefully, that will finally resolve the issue.
In case you're wondering how I'm posting now, I have a backup internet connection. I don't have a quick way to switch over to it, but it does have machines running on it (like my webserver) which means I can use it for important things--like ranting about my internet connection being broken.
In short, Charter sucks.
