Re: The Tuscon Story Ps


I read what I wrote last night , I was tired , my apology , I left unanswered holes. Mike Keezer was the owner of Protel before Mastec bought Protel , this was durning the time when Mastec , Orious and Arguss were buying up all the mom and pop companys so the conglomerates could control pricing by having all the contracts , people then became #'s and didn't like it so they left the companys they worked for , alot of the good ones got out the industry and left the primes holding the bag , they could'nt couldn't get the work done , so they hired the hacks to butcher the systems and the mother companys just turned their heads and let it happen . This all happened because everyone in a position of authority has a boss to answer too , and mileage must get done , so they turn their heads to make it happen . Then the shoudy work preformed by hacks came back to bite the conglomerates in the(moon) it bank rupted a few , but not the Cuban Mob (Mastec's backers) the industry began a downward spiral . Now we are upgrading all these systems , because everybody wants bigger ,stronger ,faster , faster ,computers , faster internet , HD digital TV , Telephone , all from the Cable companys . You see when the Mother Companys saw all this they no longer had thousands of mom and pop companys to deal with they only had a handfull , this made it easy to squeeze their balls (So to Speak) and control prices , so the primes could keep their contracts . The Day of the Hack was here. Low prices meant many more good people would get out , and the Hacks came in . Now we have arrived at 2007 and the mother companys have these hacked up systems that can't be fixed or upgraded because how the hacks left them , its a sad situation . The mother companys having the primes by the balls figured out how to squeez the prime , to get their work corrected for free , so to speak , as usual , chit runs downhill , the primes just passed their lowballed prices on to us the people that get the job done . This is not true in all systems , some are good , some are bad . I know Duck got off on a tangent about the industry my apology . I also need to clarify something about how Lenny Bess's girlfriend ended up fuc.ing Gary Vest , it was literal no sex . Gary who is one of the Best Oldschool Cabledogs left in our industry was project manager in Corpus Christy for Protel and Lennys ex girlfriend had left Lenny for her ex old man who had just gotten out of prision and she went back to him and that caused Gary problems from having them around . I gotta close for now , I don't have time to edit this either , works callin . I'll be back tonite to finish this story . Thanks for reading .
