No good deed goes unpunished, especially when you're Comcast and there's an entire subreddit dedicated to complaints about your company's notoriously bad customer service.

Here are some of the highlights that'll make you laugh, but also cry a little as you sit at home waiting between 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. for your designated Comcast appointment. 

















TBH, Comcast really can't be that surprised. The irony was lost on none.
