Comment Yeah, buy your own DOCSIS 3.0 modem (Score 1) 291

That's the solution....

Then after two years of having your own modem, you start getting charged $8 a month for modem lease. I call them, they tell me that I have to PROVE to them that I am not using their modem (even though they do not use Zoom modems, and they acknowledge that), and they have no indication that they ever sent me one.

It took many months to straighten that mess out.

How did the senior developer learn of the pay disparity?

I have discovered that people can be perfectly happy when they get paid what they think they deserve, and as far as what others make, NOYDB (None Of Your Damn Business). I grew up in an environment where people got fired for discussing pay (just to avoid situations like this).
