Verizon 1, neighbor 0

[selki]

I like my neighbor, but I'm not impressed with her architect boyfriend, and neither is Verizon.  FIOS and phone restored with temp overland wire. Tech told me my neighbor took out at least 4 people and she's going to be fined for not calling "Miss Utility" when her boyfriend put in the steps that go down from her backyard. Verizon will be in my backyard and others' over the next 2 weeks marking (spray paint on ground) and then digging and laying more fiber underground, and then I will need a "compliance technician" to come back and connect that with my house.  None of this will cost me, yay.

I wonder if I should hire the landscapers to clean up my backyard before then, or wait until they're done. I'm leaning toward the latter.
