The guy who asked me to hide his cable behind a painting

Last Tuesday I was running coax through a basement in Arlington and the homeowner kept following me around nervously. He finally said "can you just run the line behind this framed poster of a golden retriever so my wife doesn't see it" like I was his accomplice in some cable crime. Has anyone else had a customer treat you like you're hiding evidence instead of installing internet?

Wait, are you a cable guy or an accessory to a secret TV addiction?

Ngl, I used to think having an antenna was just for old people who refused to let go of rabbit ears. But a friend of mine canceled his cable and just streams everything now, and honestly, I've seen him get way more into shows he actually picks. It kinda made me realize I'm just paying for channels I never watch.
