Well, as some of you may have read on NWR, Cablevision was Tuesdays IOTD...
Wednesday, however, belongs to:
AT&T
So, step-father calls AT&T and says:
I need to cancel my service starting Tuesday, December 28
Are you sure, sir, because once you cancel, we can't give you your number back
Yes, I want it cancelled as of the 28th
Okay sir, thank you for using AT&T, we will cancel your service as of the 28th
Several minutes later....
Step-father checkes e-mail.
Dear Mr. ____
Your phone service has been cancelled.
So now, after 16 years of having the same phone number, we get a new one for the last 5 days that we live here...

Yeah, you should have seen me. Something having to deal w/ looping got screwed up, so they call us, and my step-father has just left...
So the guy tells me to go to the computer and enter a password...
What password? So my mom calls my step-father on the cell phone...
So there I am, talking to AT&T guy on one phone, and my step-father on the other... while trying to figure out what needs to be changed online...
my mother got quite a kick out of me trying to juggle multiple forms of communication...

HUH?? Did your stepfather cancel the wrong number? Am I the only one that don't get this? What do you mean that now you have anew number?

Don't you love it that he also replied back 'as of the 28th' and still messed it up? Idiots was the right word to use!

no, they cancelled our phone number at our current house a week before they were supposed to... and now we have a new phone number because they couldn't give us our old one back...
