They're running a new water main down our street at work, so consequently we're worried about them cutting our private point-to-point fiber we have between my office and our call center across the road.  We had it marked, and talked to the foreman on the trenching job - he assured us he'd look out for it, but we're still worried.

They got to our spot in the road yesterday afternoon or early this morning...   We got worried when he wanted to see us this afternoon...   He thought he'd cut our line - we weren't down, so we knew he didn't - but he still seemed to just want to talk to us around a hole in the sidewalk, in the cold wind, staring at /someone's/ cut line.   He didn't seem too concerned about it -- he said he'd called Comcast, since he believed it was theirs, but was still uver-worried that it was the dark fiber of ours that he'd cut.

After about 30 minutes of assuring him that we were fine, he seemed to become more interested in talking to the property owner who had showed up with AT&T - so we slipped away.

We had noticed that he DID find our line, and successfully cut around it, so we should be safe.
