The Angry Drunk

As I wrote last time in A Tale of Two Fuckups, after leaving one of my three Cox digital cable boxes unpowered for a week and a half, it was no longer working properly.  To recap, I called technical support looking to have the box re-authorized; but the numbskull of the phone refused and insisted [...]
