Shoutout to the guy who left a full spool of RG6 on a roof in July

I got a call to fix a signal issue at a house in Tempe, and found the previous installer's leftover cable baking in the sun for what looked like weeks. The jacket was so brittle it cracked when I touched it, and I had to rerun the whole line from the pole. What's the weirdest thing you've found left behind from another tech?

Oh man, that's a free spool of future problems. Classic "not my job" move right there.

Right? I saw that and just shook my head. Watched the same thing happen last week and it caused a huge delay. Why do people think that ever works out?
