Working from home is great unless.........
your internet and TV provider suffers an outage. Cox hit the skids about 80 minutes ago.

If not back up, I'll go to my favorite local bar Fate and work from there while I drink alcohol.

Just won't make my usual phone calls.

Win-win!

Having no competition, they didn't have much incentive to fix their shit. At&t nominally provided broadband, but it was worse.

When it did go down, the cellular phone network got overwhelmed with traffic and became completely useless.
Same issue with Sparklight... I even knew a couple who moved from a different part of town into the same neighborhood and said it went to shit. I was calling them 3 times/week at one point, even for small 5 minute outages, much less the half-day shit.

I went with TMobile Home Internet for a bit, but found out it was actually worse, and had to crawl back to Sparklight.

I have had Google Fiber since they established themselves here years ago and have had years of good service and good interactions when I needed their customer service.

There isn't a house in my neighborhood under $500,000 (probably not one less $600K+, I haven't checked in a while) and the only option [discounting satellite, etc] is Comcast. Customer service sucks. The price sucks. And for several years the internet service itself used to go out on a near weekly basis.

In the Summer, I take my sons to the gym, pool, trampoline park, etc. and just work from there. Modern day phone hot spots are fast enough to get the basic's done.

I'm a software engineer so I wouldn't be doing much developing over it.
