My point is this he didn't do his job. He never told me aht he was doing at all. I had to ask him about the battery backup. Verizon techs are suppoed to explain everything to you. He never did, if he couldnt of gotten it to work all he had to do was just hard lined it. Like I did, then come back and give it another try.

I somehow doubt that their job entitles them to explain every single thing they are doing to the customer while they are working. I'm sure that most people have to ask the technician. They few times I've had a verizon tech come over to my house he only explained what he was doing when I either asked him, or needed info from me and told me why he needed it.

I don't trust techs that come to my house! If they ask to touch my computer I tell them to GTFO!  Just ask those third party Comcast bastages! It might be a different story if they were actually from the company that is supposed to be servicing my equipment but they are just TSP asshats that don't deserve Crap from me.

I asked some people at work if they thought it an accurate statement that 95% of the problems in our system are the result of lazy or incompetent contractors and they agreed without hesitation. I'm not saying they do it wrong all the time, but that if you do have a problem, it's more likely to be a caused by a contractor than a regular employee.

Please just walk away. I don't want to have to stand here and say something so awesome that I'll have to remember it the rest of the day. Thank you!

Yeah the in house support has been great, but the people that come to your house are usually the contractors. I only got an offical Comcast person once cause I raised HELL!
