Job as in; make a decent device, deploy a decent device correctly, service said devices correctly, replace them correctly, and return them correctly. > > I know I didnt do a fucking thing towards my internet service. They did all thw work, and I dont touch the device. So I cant be blaimed for a damn thing he mentioned above (reasons for the price hike). **Thats all the justification I need to be pissed at being screwed over**.
