"well thank you for the compliment"

[irishredlass]

If my calls were not monitored and my job not dependent on those scores that is the response I would have loved to have given one of my customers today.

He seriously told me that I should "go prostitute yourself on the street corner so your company can afford to provide me with High Speed Internet". 

I was actually quite flattered he thought I could bring in so much money. Though I am sure he was trying to find a polite way to call me a w****.

It sometime really baffles me how people can choose to live in a rural environment and then expect that they are entitled to the luxuries of urban society.  If you want HSI then move closer to town. It is not my fault you chose to live on 20 acres and have a mule.

I see by your profile that you live in Canada so unfortunately my company would not be of any assistance to you anyway.

It is also unfortunate that people have a tendancy to react without thought. All they see is their small corner of the world and what is paramount to them. ie the cut finger. Whereas two years ago I sat in an ER waiting room for 2 hours vomiting and doubled over with pain. By the time I was seen they had to rush me in for an emergency appendectomy (the Dr estimates another hour and it would have burst). Mind you they heard no complaints from me first I was too busy being sick and then they had me doped up after.

As far as dial up. I agree though here you can get DSL for less than dial up. Bet you really did not want to hear that :)

Sorry to hear that they messed you up- to many times this happens mostly due to overcrowding, but I must admit some nurses are jerks. I've had some bad experiences on all sides of the stretcher- patient, relative and as a health care provider.

And NO I did not want to hear that.
