Because some people think you can crap out a reliable Tier-4 data network overnight and throwing ethernet on a pole with a linksys router dangling with a extension cord from the telephone line as a "reliable" solution.
Specialists and analysts don't know jack what it means to build a network, all they know is hardware specs, and time frames and when those time frames are not met they get their panties in a bunch and start crying wolf about it which in returns hurts a companies image and drives investors with a cautious eye to walk away into telecommunication stocks which are risky in general.
People will continue to invest in the beast called AT&T & Verizon because they already have the network and pretty much every other provider is left to handle the scraps from the major carriers. They complain about duopoly markets yet still pay their bills at the end of the month with outrageous taxes and overpriced services.
People bitch and complain all the time though, and pretty much if you ever ran a business or been in some sort of sales or management position you basically hear it all the time. |
