[AFMUG] customers and roofers (rant)

[Ken Hohhof]

Why do customers say things like "if your guy is going to mount anything to 
my roof, then my roofing guy will have to be here to supervise", yet they 
feel fine having roofers take down our equipment and cables and remount them 
without telling us?  And then act like we're saying stupid stuff when we ask 
if they called us to come out and re-aim the dish afterward, saying there 
was no need, my computer worked afterward.

You'd think roofers were highly trained in sophisticated technology, while 
we Internet guys are dolts.

Hell, I've seen roofers re-attach a J-pipe to the new roof with roofing 
nails.
