1. How Long To Repair A Broken Phone Collection In Uvita, Costa
Rica? 65 Hours
Let me very first say that i'm not complaining. I'm pleased to be online again, and enjoyed helping the
ice repairman today. My wife and I were built with a three day time vacation in Uvita, costa rica free of
the modern responsibilities and did not even have to leave home.
We noticed that the road had gone out 6pm on Saturday. This happens from time to time, but when
there was still no current or dial tone sunday morning, i decided I had to act. I strolled the part of the
road on the property , and it did not look noticeably damaged.
The next thing which ran via my head was, "my landlord did not pay the balance this month ?" So I
called the ICE expenses information number , and the pc told me there was no payment due on our
number.
I called the ICE number for confirming a phone interruption , and I called in our telephone number
again to report the outage. The pc voice repetitive back that someone would call us back within
twenty-four several hours. Monday early morning , indeed, a woman called the cellphone and
confirmed the complaint , then informed us a gentleman would call us back again shortly.
Three several hours later, indeed , a gentleman called back again and said he'd be here first thing the
next day (Tuesday, today ) - "mañana en los angeles pura mañana."
Sure enough , at 9 today, the ICE pickup truck drove upward our front yard. The repairman
optimistically came into the house with his replacement ISDN unit, hoping the problem will be easily
resolved without breaking out the work gloves. Alas, i'd already tried all the easy solutions within.
So all of us again traced the line 100m through the property , and it did not look poor. But across the

2. boundary, the phone lines experienced about twenty meters associated with jungle vines. The
repairman headed down the road in the pickup to check the signal at the junction box, and i rolled up
my sleeves, climbed the trees , and cleaned out all the branches and vines with my machete. The
one wasp home came down easily , and I did not get stung. A few ants did obtain me, however
overall it was uneventful.
I gave up waiting around after five minutes and headed to the house to get out of my sweat-drenched
work clothing and eat ; I handled the former, but simply before i had been about to eat lunch, Milyn
saw how the repairman had been back hiking the publish outside.
I headed back out, and also the two people worked collectively to replace the road. Apparently, the
voltage out of the junction box was quite good, therefore there was a few nearly-invisible corrosion
somewhere within the 700m inbetween our property and the junction box. All of us started changing
line, one pole at a time , always screening to see regardless of whether we had to continue or might
tie in towards the existing collection. We usually had to carry on.
About 2 hours later, we'd replaced the whole 700m. All of us found the fault, only about 20m from the
junction box , at a place where the cable crosses the street. Although it had been quite high, it was
clearly scraped by a few vehicle and had been subject to corrosion.

On another nearby note, when the line had been fixed, the road rang. It was the police (Fuerza
Publica). I had been at first optimistic that they were lastly returning the phone to setup time for the
free English training I had offered them. However no, these were asking for a donation to buy some
meat to put in the rice for his or her party the next day night. "disadvantage mucho gusto," I certain
him. Therefore tomorrow someone will come through and i'll give them ten ,000 for the meat and
whatever else they are able to get using the change.
A friend of mine had been probably right when he or she told me they would never phone to follow
upward about the free English training : it's just an excessive amount of work to learn English, plus

3. they don't want to put out so much work.
That's okay , I suppose. I'll contribute by any means they want, and i'm honored they gave the me the
chance to contribute something.
