Th long pole in the hands of this telephone man looks
like just the thing for fishing. But it's' not a fish he's
after; it's trouble. He's giving that cable a "bubble
bath," spraying it with a gummy, liquid solution. If the
cable is damaged, air will escape through the cracks and
form bubbles along the cable. And that's our cue to make
repairs swiftly, so your calls won't be affected. In this
and many other ways, we keep close tabs on your service.
This keeps your phone working more dependably makes
your service better.
