Hey, what do you expect from a CG? It's just like software. You pay money for it, find out it doesn't work then you have to pay more money for the next release that may or may not fix the problems.

Is it any wonder why I hate CGs? That guy must have a set so big they clang when he walks!

This should be a lesson for everybody who is considering having a CG or IT person do anything other than sit their sorry butt at a keyboard!

So, I suppose the CG has already been paid because customer knew no better? How much and do you guys have a small claims court? Or, alternatively, how can I get some of this CG's action! John C.

Let's just say total of 36 CAT5e (CMR) drops. A DVR with 4 Cameras (maybe 350TVL), a data cabinet, some 18-4 cable for the intercom and a little shy of $20k.

Can you say "thanks CG (cha-ching)".

Here's an update.

This was how I installed my equipment, the customer didn't want me to remove the patch panel, so I had to make some jumpers that terminated on a 66 block.

If you imagine the patch panel, netgear and top 66 block gone, it's decently clean looking,



I came back in today to make some AA changes, and this is what I found



The Netgear FVS 318 is not used, but still stuck up on the wall. The unit sitting on the roll of carpet is a Cisco ASA 5500. I woudln't "mount" a $700 unit to a roll of carpet.

I like the power cord management as well, it's beautiful :rolleyes:

Someone has wedged something behind the C-Class in picture #2. Looks like a clipboard or something like that?

I dont know why you think a CG would do this. It's obviously not done by one.

If it was done by a REAL CG then it would all be WiFi VoIP with a microwave to nuke his hotpockets sitting on the roll of carpet.

And you phone guys think yer so smart

Just got subcontracted today to do inside wiring MAC and asterisk consulting for a managed IT Services firm. Their office has 12' cielings and the BOTTOM of their backboard starts at the 8' mark. Need a 12' extension latter just to check the cable modem Not to mention the router/etc that is sitting on top of the blocks and smartjack box.

Well at least the phone system looks very nice!

Good one Jeff :rofl:

I just noticed, they moved my power supply! It's in a different spot in pic 1 than in pic 2. Also my zip tie anchors on top of the UPS are missing.

And yes, they did place a clip board behind the KSU. Unsure as to why
