Dealing with internet downtime was not on my bingo card today.

Good morning mylot.
Woke up to my wi-fi being difficult. I know I should drop spectrum, but I kept it for a while because it'd been working and our solar pannals are connected to them. But, now I'm considering dropping it because it's not worth it. It really isn't.
I just reconnected the pod t.v. to my att internet which is working flawlessly. And, people wonder what stresses me out? Me having to deal with people, and fight with technology. That's what gets to me. Not posting, not content creation. Just good old annoying in technology or something that happens beyond my control. That's what really irks me.
At least thease things often work themselves out, but dam it's still a pain in my butt.

Ugh. Technology is supposed to make our lives easier, but it's anything but.

Yeah, xactly. Luckilly, most internets self-repair. However, it's a real issue when it doesn't and you're waiting.

Boy can I relate to being frustrated with technology and the internet. My internet is acting up this morning too and I was trying to watch a morning show on tv and Hulu kept freezing. Paying so much for internet you would think it would work without any issues.

My "smart" phone gives me a hard time, too!

Yes, isn't technology wonderful? When it works, that is. When it doesn't, it is such a pain, it makes one wonder if it wouldn't just feel so good to chuck it all out an open window. But which is worse, dealing with the people or the technology?

The technology for sure. I have no patience for people who think they have the right to talk to me like I'm a five-year old. Even though I'm clear, professional and know what I'm talking about.

I totally agree with you. My day needs to have no problems with my laptop or my desktop PC. The desktop was set up new for me so I am still getting used to it, However, when I am posting and writing on my laptop and suddenly something goes wrong I can feel my anxiety heading toward the red, I hope everything now keep running smoothly for you.

The issue self-repaired. So, that's a good thing. But, I still connected to another router on the t.v. to keep that from becoming an issue.

@kaylachan But, as you saw in my morning post, I have put myself in situations where I am nowhere near TOTALLY in control. It's when I have absolutely NO control is when I get frustrated.
