That moment when a new ISP is finally installing fiber line where you live, but they accidentally dig through your current (and only other) ISP's line and shut down internet to your entire neighbourhood for a whole day. I was once told that it's almost about 1 million dollars per minute when you dig into active fiber line, and the cheaper insurances only last for about 10 minutes before your policy is tapped. Not sure how true that is, but it came from a foreman of a construction company. So I guess it does have some merit. Either way, someone may have lost their job today - hope they're well.

    Yeah, we were promised an upgrade to Gigabit like two years ago and they were gonna execute that this year but Covid happened so that's set on Ice yet again.
