I hate it though when people park next to each other on opposite sides of the street. And is that the downside to the smaller cargo vans, you need 3 of them?

That number they report is meaningless. I bet their take in Provo is very high. Also, it just doesn’t take a lot of employees to run fiber once it’s installed correctly.
