AT&T FIber just moved in, but because of the street I'm on, AT&T fiber
hangs lowest of all of the cables, and my neighbor's cable has been
clipped by trucks thrice. It's taken 4-5 days to repair it each time -
they roll a mid-sized pickup truck with a 6 foot ladder out with no
chance of repairing it to meet the SLA, then call it in to escalate.
