Does he work directly for the cable company or a third party installer?
If it’s third party, report him to his supervisor and then call the cable company and complain to them. Try to get highest honcho you can.
Either way, call somebody and bitch. Whether or not you have a satellite dish is none of his business. If he makes a mess, he should clean it up.
Between this thread and the one earlier on noisy neighbors I’m all worked up! If there’s one thing I hate more than noisy neighbors its a monopoly on a public utility. I thought we lived in a society that recognized how capitalism works to keep prices down and quality up? Why do we allow comcast to completely dominate the industry? I should a multitude of options for cable service instead of dealing with the idiots at comcast who can’t keep an appointment, offer overpriced options for their services, and abysmal support for any kind of problem with their service, technical or not. Unfortunately they are the only game in town in my area offering that fast of a connection. I could get DSL if I could stand to deal with Verizon and didn’t mind getting half the speed.
