That damn AT&T box

The little people 0, big business 1,000,000,001

We have a very beautiful, large AT&T UVerse box in our front yard. Not only is it an eyesore, but the shrubbery that used to surround it was destroyed by AT&T workers. On top of that they litter our lawn with their trash while they're working.

Luckily, my father-in-law took this on as his project to get the box taken care of for us. We either wanted money for it (they're renting our property, no? They don't have an easement for its use), or they could move it to where they did have an easement. A title lawyer has gotten involved and has been talking to the AT&T people. He even sent a surveyor to measure our property.

Today there were little posts marking the corners of our property. To my extreme dismay, the ones in the front yard were past the box. Does this mean they can leave that damn box there for all eternity and there is nothing we can do about it? This is all completely unfair.

Funny thing is, when UVerse finally came to our neighborhood about a year ago, we called them to switch our cable and get a deal... Turns out they were much higher priced than Comcast and even though their box is in our yard, they wouldn't budge on their price!

AT&T brews up torture for its clients and neighbors...
