We're moving into our brand new building this weekend. The movers start Friday night and finish up on Saturday. The packing is almost done and we're just tying up loose ends. Bellsouth DSL and Comcast Cable Internet were both installed a couple of weeks ago -- tested and working.
Today we had our walk-through to make sure all was done to our satisfaction. It was, with a few minor touchups...However, as I peeked into the phone room, I realized that our DSL and cable modems were GONE. As was half of the existing phone system, my box of ethernet cables and our 24-port ethernet switch. Fucking fucks. The suite has been wide open for two months, with workers coming and going at all hours. As far as I could tell, nothing had been stolen, moved or vandalized in all that time. Three days before we're supposed to move in, someone has to go and fuck it all up.
Thankfully, my IT guy has an extra DSL modem we can have and Comcast already scheduled a tech to come out and replace the cable modem (though it will probably cost us $100-$200 or so). So frustrating.
At least the building is awesome and the suite looks terrific. I'll be sure to post pictures when we're all moved in and settled.
