What is it like in DTV / EG?
Yes. Just get loaded tonight and sleep in tomorrow morning. Relax and enjoy.
Yep
I’m sure AT&T will make y’all read a PLE and say you’re voip trained.
I’m not sure, but I’m not even sure if I’m supposed to report in to work tomorrow. I’m a home dispatch tech and I’m just waiting for the old union text to see what to do next.
According to my feeble memory, I recall that in California, the Public Utility Commission does not consider Internet and Pay TV as being an essential public utility. Only dial tone for 911 purposes.
We stopped being a utility a long long long time ago. We are an entertainment company. How entertaining it has become.
DTV basically merged with IP and IP needed big time for stuff such as work from home. More concerning would be a tech being found With Covid. Might push the company to shut down all new installs and just have a small crew for repair services
Utilities is an essential service, so you may be ok.
Pay TV is number three on the McElfresh list - so might be likely unless the Feds cover your wages.
