Trouble is always waiting

"Trouble is waiting to be dispatched to a technician."

That's the status of our phone repair with Verizon, per their web form (for the third time in two years, our line has gone to static, and is basically unusable).

I pity the poor technician.

I feel your pain. I had my phone and internet go out twice in three weeks. Each time, it took 4 days four someone to come.

Yeah, we're up to two days without any change in the call status. Fortunately, we have cell phones and borrowed wifi.

It seems convenient, actually. The technician can just stay in one place, rather than having to GO somewhere to solve the trouble. Saves the technician time and tsuris.

Well, there's something to be said for that, I suppose.

I can't exactly say why, but I first read that as, "Trouble is waiting to be dispatched with a henchman."

Hee!
