...neither of which I'm particularly happy about.

My employeer does not offer matching contributions to a 401K. It does offer a lump sum as a percentage of yearly salary, though, but it's anywhere from 1-3%, which isn't that great.

Also, a Comcast guy finally showed up, but there's wasn't much he could do, since (according to him) Comcast are cheap assholes who need something shoved in their face before they stop blaming it on you. He did suggest that we record the signal levels when the modem goes down, as well as saying that sometimes Comcast's equipment needs a bit to adjust to the heat/cold during changes in the weather.

He also lives in our apartment complex, and we have his number and permission to call during business hours. That, at least, is something.

It's interesting how, as the people I have on my friends page slowly graduate college and move onto other things, the amount of posts has crashed. There used to be 10 posts a day or so on average. Now, it's more like 3.

yeah, i was thinking that the other day - even about my own posting habits.

i used to always have something new on LJ to read and had a reason to check it multipule times a day. now its probably ok to check it once a day or even every other day and i wouldn't really miss much.

for my own part, my postings have plumeted for two reasons :
1) i dont like being overly angsty and if i posted every day i would be
2) my life is very uneventive. i do the same thing for the most part every day in and out.

I would ask for a new modem if you keep having trouble. Whenever I had problems with one of my boxes, they'd just send someone over and give me a new box. Seemed to help (but that was the tv box, not the modem).
