DirectTV in my office works fine and I can watch there (although it's not hi-def and I have to sit at my desk, can't sit on my couch and/or pace in front of the TV as necessary) - but the living room box isn't working, and the first service call they can get me is next week.

WHYYYYYYY MEEEEEEEEEEEE?????????????????
