Experts?

Why do experts always think they know everything and then proceed to be completely unhelpful?  Because at the end of the day they are just salesmen, the bane of my life.

I asked someone to come in today to resolve a networking issue. I specifically asked when I contacted them for them to bring in a 50m cable for troubleshooting purposes, so what did they arrive with today? That’s right nothing! All I am going to get from today is a quote for a cable installation when I don’t even know if it will resolve the issue.

So what was the excuse, well there was some mention of run radius being special for cat6 over cat5e and then a mention of it not representing a real installation etc. But at least it would have told me if it worked. How am I likely to exceed the radius limit by trailing it along a floor, and how can they say there is a difference between cat5e and cat6 when a couple of quick searches tell me they have the same limitation?

So they have wasted their time and my time and I still have the same trouble I started out with and all because they just push push push for the sale.
