Short live…… soooooo. FYI . So if you like the tech you can $5 extra to get that tech every time. Now…. I can only get a 3 hr window for an appointment . So if you don’t get the same person you have to walk around to make sure they do what you need . Very irritating… August I ask the tech do you what you are…
