I started working at 2:30pm today. Yeah, 2:30 in the freakin' afternoon! Thanks a lot PLDT. Your services are as impressive as a sneeze trying to uproot a tree.
When I arrived today at work, I was informed by one of my colleagues that a technician arrived earlier and went back to get a new modem. Okay. He arrived about half an hour later with two units identical to our modem.
After fiddling around with our modem, he came to the conclusion that the reason was that the DHCP service on the modem was disabled. (For non-tech people, the DHCP service gives your PC an Internet address so you can go online and take quizzes on Facebook)
Being a network administrator for the past 4 years, I took a few moments to ponder that thought, then my brain said "BS in its purest form". He took a couple more hours trying to make up excuses (and in the process got intimidated by Mac OS X's terminal -- saying he preferred the "old style", Windows). Finally, around 2:30, he quit and told me he'd endorse it to the ISP's "techier" guys, whatever the hell that is.
Some people totally loooooove BS. I bet if there were pools built for that, they'd be wading there like old fat sows.
