  • Get a fucking life you douche!!! If he falls and breaks his neck thats his problem!! You have nothing better to do with your time than to record people working and try to get them in trouble!! Your a piece of shit!!!!

  • Get a life, If you questioned me like that, I'd give you 2 black eyes. LOL you are such a lowlife turd, leave people along man.

  • What a douche.

    Testing out his new 2 MP VGA camera.

    Get a life.

  • You need something better to do

  • Sounds to me like he was more concerned about if they where safe as opposed to him getting his cable hooked up. Honestly, it was the technicians choice to not wear the equipment and put out cones in a CULDESAC so why be a prick and film them doing their job? You got your services installed/fixed, get over it D-bag.

  • he looks like he wants to hit him with the ladder

  • Just because your scared of heights does not mean everyone is. Grow a pair already! You may need someone to hold your hand through life but they don't. I am sick of petty rules and regulations.I work with heights daily and find a lanyard more of a safety problem then solution. And I happen to know of a situation were the snap and swing of the harness ended up killing the man in a survivable fall. In the end we are accountable only for ourselves. So let me make my call on my safety!

  • The uploader is not a "pile of shit" People do have to make living. A tech died this past weekend in Chicago with no safety gear from a ladder fall. The Uploader reminded the techs to be safe. This is a good wake up call for them. We all want to go home at the end of the workday alive. This guy knew he was in the wrong. Looked to be training as well. Slackers.

    Do it right if your going to do it at all.

    Props. A little "NARC-like" but props for caring.

  • you're a big pile of shit, mother fuckers have to earn a living, what's it to you if he hurts himself?

  • What an asshole! Tech's have to put up with enough shit and then some dick wants to bust their balls about safety? You probaly got these guys fired you fuckin dick! If you were so worried about safety you should have ran your chicken shit ass out the door and said hey put your gear on and not uploading this crap for techs to get in trouble. Your lucky that wasnt a tech like me because I'd visit your house with a few buddies after work to see if you could use that camera after breaking your hands

  • ACTUALLY!! The guy who took the video did right by me. If a supervisor had pulled up and saw that technician without his helmet and safety harness he would have been written up on the spot. Sometimes these techs need some reminding that doing it right is what keeps their jobs. That one tech doing it wrong, gets all the other techs who do it right in trouble. Keep filming and posting. Maybe the angry people here will go get jobs with DT or Dish.

  • Yeah its pretty safe. Hell backyard, no traffic, grass, helper. Yeah its just fine. DO you run around video taping your neighbors? Do you sell laniards and safety helmets to all of them? DOnt you ever see people on picks and ladders siding houses? They arent all dressed pretty for your fetish.

  • yep, you're a douche for sure

  • i wouldve black mailed them for free cable and all the channels

  • what a fucking douche bag you are captain safety.

  • you need to mind your own fucking business.

  • people really have too much time on their hands. it amazes me how many people dont work and complain about their cable freezing or break up once in a blue moon. you can tell from his tone in the video he was recording just to be a pain in the ass. if every tech followed exact procedure, they would get 3 maybe 4 jobs done a day. time warner wants a job an hour. id like to see him go out and be all SAFE and complete 8 jobs daily to assholes like himself they prob been up them ladders 1000times

  • Loser thats wat you called a loser ,,,go vacuum the house or something ! You shit bored ass full of shit!!!! This is wat you should do tell them its unsafe and someone could get hurt or probably die. And if they dont listen you going to complain and backed up by a video that's probably going be on the web by now. May be that would help but instend you are a eye sore the cancer thats raising coz of unemployment.This guys probably have families that rely on them to be their provider for their fa

  • If you were concerned about them hurting them self why didn't you confront them before going up. I would have. And to post this to YouTube was wrong. What if they would have fell and you knew it was unsafe.

  • As a cable guy, thank you for posting this. I hope this idiot got fired for not using any safety equipment and making the rest of us look bad. His firing just may have saved his life. Hard hats protect against hitting your head on high voltage lines, and he should have had at the very minimum a lanyard for fall protection, or even a full body harness. People like this deserve whatever discipline comes their way.

  • You keep commenting that this video is about safety in order to defend your douchebaggery. This is not a safety video, its an unsafety video either way your still a douchebag for busting someones balls while they are working and you are not.

  • But yeah, dip shits with no ppe. I'd at least give'em shit for it. If I had any authority over them I'd fire them. Just have a problem with people putting this stuff on the web, kinda a dick move.

  • *You Tube. You know what I meant.

  • Oh and as far as posting this video on youtube, you are a complete ass. Give the shit to there boss, hell send it to corparate. But You Yube?

  • Ok, I dont know about you guys out there but we in So. Cal. rent the pole space from whichever company owns the poles, generally the power company, giving us the same easement rights as the utilities. Aside from the small amount of visible attention the cones add the only reason for them is to force us to check for obstructions around the vehicle i.e. toys pets babies (happened to comcast truck few years back).

  • For one thing time warner suck balls, but on the other hand u must also suck balls. Thats pretty shitty to dick with the people trying to help u out, or the community in general, but apparently your just an ass hole who enjoys being an ass hole. If you want to take a trip to the great state of Arkansas ill show you what a good old country ass whoppin feels like from a real cable guy you fuckin douche bag.

  • I wonder how it feels to put 2 guys out of work so you can feel good abut yourself. As long as you are able to put food on your table for your family. I do not condone or am I in any way saying what happened in this video is correct. The thing that is incorrect here is the over estimation of your self improtance. I pitty people like you who make themselves feel better by causing pain and misery to others. You are exactly what is wrong with society today. Veteran Maint. tech. TWC

  • @cletuspwd1 wow i just watched this vid and i work for another mso, and this person saw somthing unsafe and called them on it . i think that is great because when i see some retard climbing a ladder or pole with no safty gear on it makes our industry look stupid. and you should feel the same way especially when there is power on the pole or near the lines they are working on or under. You shouldn't be mad at the poster you should be mad at the TWC techs.

  • @yortnoraa , Like I said in my first post in no way am I condoning what they did. Safety is paramount in our profession. I really don't know if these 2 guys got fired or not. I know in our system if they were caught by any employee and reported they would be out of a job. I don't agree with the guy who video'ed them. If he was so concerned about there safety, why did he wait until they were done working to confront them. Good comment though, glad to read anymore you may have.

  • I am not trying to pick a fight because you are a bitch. You say you are video taping for safety, but in all reality it is illegal in 27 states to record without the consent of the recorded party. Actually in several states it is a Felony. These guys are paid for this profession. They obviously know what they are doing. Who are you to record them doing their job. How about I get my camcorder and follow you around videoing all the fuck ups you perform in a day. You probably voted for Obama too!

  • You must be a Time warner employee to be having such agression towards a SAFETY VIDEO.

    Really ? Illegal in 27 states to record huh?

    YouTube and yourself need to get together and prosecute all these people who are uploading these ILLEGAL VIDEOS...you might be onto something.

    Did you catch the part in my video where I actually have a conversation with the cable guys?

    They knew they were being recorded, this was not a hidden camera.

    Get your camcorder /follow me/upload

    KENTUCKY

  • @xcableguysx What they did is unsafe. You are a whiny bitch.

  • Totally unsafe, good video, Time Warner Cable in Ohio blows. As for recording Woman Arrested For Recording Police From Her Front Yard has just occurred this summer of 2011. Good ole' Patriot Act watch?v=C26iKtPYrcc

  • @arkansasdude19 you are so fucking wrong on that shit right there. 1 They are on his property. he has EVERY right to record them. 2 In thos 27 other states its probbly something like you must be in public (if your going to be recording in public) and you must be in full vew of everyone. there is also the stuff where you arnt allowed to audio record but you can video record. But again. this was on this guys own Property so he had every right to record them. was it a dick move? yes.

  • man you are a fucking cock sucking little bitch got nothing else to do but to tell on people you say you got a life and a job why don't you go do that and if i caught you recording me i would beat you fucking ass and if you did record me and i ask you a question you would fucking answer me bitch!!!!!!!!!

  • This is about safety.

    Are you seriously looking for a fight based on YouTube videos?

    What a douche.

  • @xcableguysx What state are you from?

  • @06MUSTANGGT24V ...KYKYKYKYKYKYKYKYKYKYKY

  • @xcableguysx if its about safety thats why the big companies have insurgence. if these guys wanna get killed let em. its their life. you cant handle that oh well.

  • QC guys are such pain in the asses

  • I used to be a cable guy, and that is a dead to rights reason for termination right there...plain and simple...the trucks left running, no cones, and then to run up the pole with no safety equipment.....lol I got fired for a lot less than that....lol

  • i love how people have time to tape people and put it on yourtube. if anything did happen you wounldnt be at fault. people who do this needs a life mr pufect. do you not have job or you on work mans comp. we should tape you and see how many mistakes you do. get alife who cares

  • I do have a life and a job that I do everyday. Anybody is welcome to record me and put it on YouTube. I'm sure I make mistakes like everyone else. And hopefully people would learn from them.....not get on here and waste time with" get a life" and "who cares" type stuff.

  • Does anyone realize that of all the poor cable guy videos on youtube, this ,so far, is the only one Ive seen that the cable guy is doing something wrong. Go look at the dogs biting them, kids punching them in the genitals, customers just being absolute idiots, crawl spaces to climb in with spiders and just plain nasty homes to deal with. Do not blame all Time Warner Cable techs for one stupid man's mistake. Also does anyone else find it funny that this man has time during the day to tape this?

  • @brcsoccer15

    Nobody is saying ALL Time Warner Cable Techs are careless!

    And I don't think anybody else would think on "this man's" day off that he may be video taping something .... and happen to see this.

  • violations of privacy by VIDEO TAPING THESE DUDES with out ritten permission? i would be dropping my 28 footer rite on ur fat ass head

  • @lumina90ea

    What law says I need "ritten" permission for video taping in my backyard or anywhere else? Cable guys knew they were being video taped. Sounds as though your 28 footer has fallen on your fat ass head more than enough.

  • i always belt off, only because i gaff and never use a ladder and have to belt off. but truthfully, you seem like the type who likes to get people in trouble. I bet you were pissed off at time warner for something and thought you would bitch about nothing that puts you in any danger at all. only reason companies implement safety measures is to protect their own asses from law suits and to save company money. they dont give a shit about the technician or the person involved in the accident.

  • @chadvipe2 actually they implement safety policies so they can comply with OSHA, and so they have a reason to fire people when they need to cut down on spending.

  • @MrCableguyken you're right, however OSHA regulations and company policy are 2 different things. Example being: OSHA doesn't require you to wear a safety vest unless you're working within 20 feet of the road. however most companies want you to wear it 24/7 when you're working. etc.

  • aside from the safety cones which i can't tell from the video looks like they are in a drive way which i could be wrong, but if they are in a drive way they do not need safety cones out. if they do it is company policy. 2. i would like to see your fat ass carry a 28ft ladder 100 ft spending 45 minutes just going up a pole with all of your safety gear on. belting off protects you from falling sure but wait till a line falls on your ass and you cant get out of the way cuz your being "safe"

  • this guy shouldn't be working ... you are fire !!!! that is a no ..no..

  • this guy is being a prick.it's a dead end street; it's not like they are blocking traffic on a major street. Hard hat? what in the hell do they need a hard hat for? meteors?

  • scab company , scab employees ... UNIONIZE and PROSPER !!!!

  • capt. safety, your a douche bag

  • Rear easements should be banned.

  • yeah, the good thing was the pole and tap were reasonably placed, pole looked sturdy and tap was close by, but only takes 2 min to put on safety gear, I almost fell off a ghetto pole when the pole shifted and my latter twisted, i held the strand so me and the ladder didn't fall, I muscled the ladder to a position I could at least feel safe enough to unhook and climb back down....had to check my underwear!! glad I was wearing my belt!!

  • i never wear a hard hat. i always wear my belt. ALWAYS. i feel naked without it up there.

  • mind your own business, then get a life

  • "making sure everyone stays safe" by watching him climb THEN getting your camera. Looks like you just want to be a tattletale.

  • No safty belt? Wheres his tool belt?

    what was this a disco?

  • who the fuck cares about that old doochebag, if he fell off the ladder thats his own fault

  • I am a TWC employee. 1. These are TWC employees, contractors don't use our vehicles with our logo's. At least not in my city. 2. Ever field-ops employee goes through the same safety training and proper PPE use. (Personal Protective Equipment.) 3. Every field-ops employee does an annual test on proper field safety and signs a document saying he understands and knows the penalties of not following the guidelines. So please don't hold these two guys accountable to the entire company.

  • im a comcast tech and yes this type of unsafe work practice is frowned upon if osha was to catch this the tech would be fined a minimum of $1,000 and the company could be fined $10,000 vehicles r not to be left running unless u r working near it and cones should always be placed i can say ive never gone up a pole without my ppe on this looks really bad especially in the public eye but i would never judge the whole company id judge the worker but it does of course look bad and very unsafe

  • Lol... That guy is my uncle... No joke

  • There is no excuse for any legitimate business to neglect safety issues. Every single time you show up for a service call you are being 'set up' . If you're pissed you got called out, you should be appreciative it wasn't someone from OSHA calling you out. Consider it a wake up call and practice safety guys. No excuse. You just got caught. I'd be nice and say thanks instead of name calling. Someone can turn this in. I'm sure this thread will be removed soon as well.

  • TW..

    Whats up with the name calling?

    I would think it might be in the best interest of Time Warner not to show up in anybodys backyard, frontyard, sideyard or street without proper safety gear.

    They were set up?

    I'm so sure X cable made them NOT wear there safety gear before they entered his yard. Yeah ok.

  • And how do know when they had a safety meeting ????

  • This video is not about the interest of safety of another human being. This shit head is just out for revenge. And whats the chance that time warner shows up in your back yard after you made one video already??? I would say slim to none! Can we say set up.

  • hey cinray23 whats the difference in this guy video taping people for a legit reason and you sitting on your ass not doing anything with your life but viewing youtube videos sounds like you are no different than any one posting on here so why dont you grab your nine iron and keep your wonderful ideas to yourself there tiger because its obvious you have no idea what your talking about!

    Tiger..........

  • I can't understand how a video about the interest of safety of another human being would result in .....

    Insults,

    Threats,

    Accusations ,

    and the complete misunderstanding of the video.

  • I dont know this guy, just a generalization, I guess I shouldn't have made about a 40 yr old man. All apologies for assuming he had a family. Probably doesn't have time for one. I can't believe how bent everyone is getting over this stupid guy wasting his life recording the cable guys. Has anyone of you thought about why he's doing this? I have a feeling the people that are getting bent are the one's that made the video, or know them. This guy should go golfing, or something.

  • So ir8cobra says the Time Warner Techs are going to 'beat someone's ass'?

    Wonder if he's a TM employee. wcmom, show this thread to your local leaders. I wouldn't want one of them in my house either if this is the way they are going to act. Heck, do a search on you tube and you'll find thousands of this type of video. What's Time Warner Techs going to do? Beat up everyone?

  • nope not a employee just thought it was wrong if the guy did it for insurance purposes then fine i have no dog in this and ill just keep out of it

  • If the people doing all the "searching" of stats of someone who commented on the video are so worried about the video, maybe they work for Time Warner and know they broke the rules more than once and they'll be caught doing something else. As a Time Warner customer, I don't want any of you in my home if there is a problem with my service. If I complain about something you do you might want to come back and "beat" me too. Maybe the city leaders need to know about these videos and threats.

  • cinray23 seems to think they know who the people doing the recording are. Either you people that are dogging these people are really stalkers or you know more than the rest of the City of Versailles knows about our cable company and it's workers - or ex workers. If you'd do your job the way it should be done you wouldn't be so defensive about the whole thing. Seems to me the only problem you have with it is that you got caught breaking your company's rules??? Maybe you should be the next "x"

  • Dont know em and dont care to.  Seems like your the one who's defensive.

  • I don't care what rules these guys broke. This is the most juvenile display I have ever seen. I have checked your stats xcableguysx, you are a 40 year old man, have you nothing better to do with your time than harass these two guys? And from your other videos, it looks like you spend most of your time stalking the cable guys. Get over it, already. Your wife and kids must be SO proud.

  • How do you know he has a wife and kids? Oh wait, that's right, you said you didn't know him. Yeah right. Where did your friend ir8cobra go? You know, the one that made the thread to beat their asses?

  • I don't know anybody involved in this mess but it's no wonder the people in Versailles have issues with Time Warner Cable. The rates go up, the service goes down and (as seen here) nobody there cares. The employees don't care about their own safety, the management doesn't care if the employees follow the rules, then they're threatening somebody that probably doesn't have a dog in this fight. Or is it a guilty conscience talking? It's easy to be a bad guy when you're not there.

  • ummmmm ir8cobra how is breaking some rules doing your job???? isnat that the point of rules? to provide structure and SAFTEY i belive so . take this into account thats someones dad there and if they worked for you and were happen to fall and kill thereself would you have this same bad ass adittude if you had to tell his family that he was killed because of unsafe working conditions and you could have prevented it but didnt because you dont care about saftey as long as they get the job done.

  • Comment removed

  • This is so funny. Time Warner people are belly aching about how hard it is to find a job and keep one...well then wouldn't you be following all the rules then esp. after having a safety training class a couple of days before this video was taken? Bunch of dipshit crybabies.

    Hey cablelover, are you using binoculars when you are climbing people's poles to see in their windows? How else would you know if someone's sitting in their underwear?

  • Comment removed

  • It is obvious to me that everyone who has been leaving negative comments to this situation is either in the video or is employed by Time Warner. The negative response from the first video caused a second one to be added. ..Are you people just plain stupid? Keep on and I'm sure video #3 is ready. Therefore giving your co-workers some air time as well.

  • Two x cable guys that are going after all Time Warner tech because they are mad about loosing their jobs. So the tech in the video made one mistake. How many did you guys make to become x cable guys??

  • learn to spell and you can criticize others for being ssttupid... DA!

  • Ok jag. Penis saying xcable doesnt own property isnt a threat you fucking retard. there is a 25' easement on all utility poles/peds for all utility services, electric and phone included. Second to be a Contractor in any field you have to carry liability insurance at least. should he fall off that ladder it has nothing to do with whoevers yard its in because 25' around that pole isn't HIS! property persay.

  • Comment removed

  • No I didnt see either one of them get hurt so they still have an intact safety record

  • Mr yo you need to learn to spell and we know you dont own property x cable

  • I don't know what safety standard they were suppose to be following but I sure hope that wasn't it. It only takes once. I hope these guys don't find out the hard way.

  • People better have good home owner's insurance is this company comes to work in your back yard.

  • Yoso It is utterly rediculous to say that any employee, Time Warner, Contractor, or any other service could sue you or timewarner for falling off a ladder without safety gear on. thats their responsibility and noone elses. No court system would even accept if they werent wearing safety equip. STOP THIS IRRELEVENT BULLSHIT!

  • Safety violations on my property IS my buisness. Besides we are NOT cable subscribers. Looks like someone broke their "SAFETY RECORD" in the wrong yard.

  • Get a job you fucking idiot and quit messing with peoples lives I bet if you check their saftey records they are excellent.........idiots abound

  • Ok Mr Penis, if that was in my yard I wouldn't like it one bit. A lot of these guys are contractors because Time Warner are tight asses. Contractors don't get medical ins. You think if he fell he wouldn't try to sue Time Warner plus the home owner. Plus I wouldn't want my kids finding some idiot that won't wear safty gear lying dead in my back yard. Peniswrinkleable - Go iron your dick out.

  • ok first its not your place to stick your nose in shit like that when all they are trying to do is work leave them alone who cares if they are not wearing a safty belt did u see him fall no so stfu
