(Thanks to Waldon!)
]]>lol that looks fun!
]]>You can hardly blame Comcast for the behavior of the technicians that they hire out. And besides, we have no information indicating whether he's on the clock or if this is being done during a lunch break or what.
Flat out, if this is a hired outside contractor, I wouldn't hold this against Comcast. Adelphia went under because all of their in-house techs were on strike for years. They only had the outsiders who really just don't care.
However, I'm sure that the contract with this particular contrator is already under close review if it hasn't already been cancelled.
]]>Then he said that he was moving to Florida the next day, so he didn't give a shit. That left me with a good taste in my mouth.
]]>While we're bickering about whether or not he is on duty or he owns the van or not and other such CONJECTURE I propose that the man was recntly laid off and was giving his uptight boss his just desserts.
]]>@akede2001: probabl a magnet.
So what if the guy has a little fun without hurting anybody. he was gonna be late regardless, at least he may be in a good mood when he's late this time.
]]>correction.... I see now that it is some idiot performing for the camera...IN THEIR WORK VAN!!!!!! Jeeze! At least remove or cover up the "comcast" sign! In this day & age of youtube & googlevideo... you are a moron to do something this stupid on camera & not expect the possibility of it being posted online & have it come back & bite you in the ass! If this guy loses his work contract with comcast... then I say he deserves it.
]]>Meh, I hate the comcast a-holes just as much as anyone, but I am not going to begrudge them a little fun occassionally. Heck!, when I worked in security, every winter I did at least one donut in the patrol vehicle they provided. Of course.... I always did it when i KNEW there was no possibility that I was being watched/seen/caught.
I WILL however bust their balls for being stupid enough to do it in a place where someone caught them on video doing it! Jackasses!
Btw... was this in a customer's driveway/parking lot? Because it wouldnt suprise me if it was.
]]>They were just trying to clear the lot for other people, right? No harm in that!
/sarcasm
]]>Comcast doing doughnuts, what do they think they are cops.
Oh yeah and Buran, Lighten up will ya geeeeeezzzzz
@Buran:
It's a waste of gas.
But donuts on ice isn't abusing the equipment...you're not hurting it one bit.
]]>@Buran:
Well if you're being ticky-tack like that, sure...There's no chance that Comcast says it's ok to do that, but referencing your original comment "if they're doing this instead of the work their paid to do..." Well, we simply can't PROVE that they are even on the clock in the video, and again referencing your original comment "abuse of company vehicle..." we don't even have proof that is a ComCast, and not privately owned, vehicle.
I'm just calling a spade a spade.
As long as they aren't swinging the arse of the van into me, let the good times roll.. or spin. *rimshot*
]]>And show me written proof from Comcast that it's OK to do this even on your lunchbreak.
]]>How do we know the van doesnt belong to the driver?
]]>I'm another Comcast hater, but that looked like some good ole fun. I've done my share of Camaro snownuts.
]]>@Buran:
Well, regarding your first point...how do you know it's not their lunch break?
Regarding your second point...please explain to me how in the hell doing doughnuts damages a vehicle. Have you ever even done a doughnut? Please tell me how this is "abusing company property"
That's a Connecticut license plate....
]]>doughnuts are fun! but more fun in a rear wheeled vehicle. i had a similar job where i drove a chevy blazer. i would totally rip ass through your driveway if you were an asshat.
on a different note, am i the only one on here who purposely looks for lots to do doughnuts on when it snows?
]]>@Buran:
Wow, I bet you're a blast at parties!!!
]]>What do you expect? The only qualification to be a comcast "technical expert" is a driver's license.
If these people were educated, they wouldn't be working for comcast.
]]>Comcast always had problems with indis... then again who hasn't.
I see all these sweet DirecTV vans all over and they send me the 3 maybenotlegals who do a p!sspoor job and I wind up doing their job over again.
]]>And, this is also abuse of company equipment, which is another reason for Comcast to not "get over it".
]]>But still, if the company owns the van and only has a Comcast sticker on it-- and he's not even on the job-- who the hell cares?
I used to do this a lot in the snow. Cops would come and tell us to leave, because we'd do it in school parking lots and such. It was fun. Even cops knew it.
]]>ahh- my teenage years growing up in Michigan...
]]>I woulda taken the sign of first, myself.
]]>Looks like an independent Comcastic contractor, and that's an all wheel drive van too. Next week he'll be installing Dish Network!
]]>Who is it that usually gives you the "benefit of the doubt"? Usually laid back people.. not hard up "I haven't had a break in four years" people.
]]>Doing brody's in the snow is a perfect valid excuse for being late and/or missing appointments.
Oh my bad, would you like another serving of sarcasm? :D
]]>SOMEBODIES GONNA GET FIRED!
]]>Dog Nuts? Comcast is certainly an unpleasant company, but frankly I don't even want to know what they do with Dog Nuts.
Doughnuts?
Donuts?
