That's your first bill so it's for two months, thats why everything is listed twice. The two $5 programming access fee's are because your receivers aren't connected to a phone line or broadband.

As a contractor I would leap at two D-1000 plus deals..Yes it's all day but they pay more than d-500's. You guys have it easier than we do. No basements here. Most newer homes are built on slabs or crawl spaces. Very steep roof pitches. But most homes less than 15 years old are pre wired...Just be glad yer not doing two DTV HD installs. Two cables to each DVR pus phone lines and they pay less...At least Mastec does...Way less.. Half in fact..
Are you a DNSC tech?...If so, call in sick..Those guys get $11.75 an hour here...Top out at $14/hr..I wouldn't even open one eye to look at the alarm clock for that....

Wow cost of living must be pretty low for Charlotte.

You really don't top out at DNS, you still get yearly raises and such, if your a good tech that sweats you might see a .40 raise/yr otherwise the one taking up space might see $.08

FSS I $11.75 (average slug always stays here)
FSS II $12.92 (good guy moving up for advancement lookin good dont get comfortable)
FSS III $14.21 (used to be a good guy then got sick of management or stuck doing admin always having to help idiots)
FSS IV $15.63 (never touch unless you go above and beyond)

Figure the average tech works 56 hours / week FSS I pay $752/week

Then if you make gold status $789.60 / week -FSS I
Then if you make platinum status $864.80 / week - FSSI

Don't forget your "FREE" TV package -$34.99 a month off your bill.
