Re: Testing someone else's cable box

I supervised a crew of outside technicians in the telephone business for service from DS0 thru DS3. I don't ever recall one of my technicians disconnecting another company's service to test the "cable box". That must be some really lax supervision and really lax technicians, if they can be called technicians. Rule One was always know where you supposed to be. Rule Two was know what you were doing. Obviously both rules were not followed.

Sure. Those high cap business class lines where I worked took priority. The techs if nothing was spare and a fix took to long would borrow, ok steal a good pots pair leaving that customer out of service. Then a pots tech would be stuck with fixing something. That pots pair may be the companies own customer or resell customer.
I have also seen where I worked them borrow house cable pairs the same way. The company I worked for was or pretends to be broke and forced productivity and speed. Cheating happened.
