Internet died here. Posting from my phone.
You poor soul. Any idea what is up?
Our guess is that the "internet guy" shut it off. It's exactly a week since he was supposed to have turned it on.

Maybe you should tell him, "We're going to be here for a while. Keep checking with us before your turn it off."
... but tell him that in Italian, lol.

You could trace the wires and fix it.

10% of all SW posts are something like "how would you deal with this situation" and it is always someone asking something that sounds semi-reasonable until you dig into it and realize that every answer is the same: "find the person in charge, let them know of the issue, do your job as directed." Essentially every SMB IT "how do I deal with this" question I see comes down to the same issue of an IT employee not liking a situation or event, trying to take ownership of something they are not responsible for and trying to figure out how to deal with it when, the real issue is, they are overstepping their bounds and are not letting the chain of command make decisions.
This is just basic employment. What is it about SMB IT that makes people feel like the chain of command is no longer applicable?

It's like 10% of all of the posts come down to saying "act like a reasonable employee". Do other fields have this problem so often?

It is always dark down there on the bottom of the world in the shadows, right?

That's why Australia has so much desert, no rain because it is blocked by the norther hemisphere. It's in the rain shadow of the globe

@scottalanmiller is it possible that SMB IT feel that their management doesn't know squat about IT yet they are making decisions that to the IT person just seem wrong.
