CABL Forum - Re: Rate these sub install prices

Who said they can make 350.00 a day with those prices? you must be wantin to work 24-7. Man you newbies are workin for fast food wages and aint even smart enough to know it. 20.00 for a new install, what a f***in joke..... Hey theres a company out there looking for YOU GUYS, their name is Adelphia. They are looking for a few stupid f***ers

> Budman is right!!!!!!! Thats to damn low. Your workers must be starving. You sure can't raise a family with these rates.

> > Budman, I think you have had way toooooooooooooo many 'Buds', thee prices listed are what are being paid for cable installs in the mideast.............a 2 room sat install pays $90-$100. Obviously there is a liitle more money in the sat end of it....hmmmmmmm. And before you put your foot in your mouth, I do both CATV and Sat installs in the mideast.

Anyway, back to the original question, these prices suck and the need to be about 4X that for a sub to make a buck. Your talking about satellite wages now.

> > > These are damn good prices - the best I have ever seen. That tells you how fuked up the cable industry is at the install side. Used to be a good living at the construction side of things but thats OLD NEWS now, isnt it. Cable's time has come and gone, we are now seeing the pathetic exit of dinosaur technology.
