This is my industrious Tackle it Tuesday list for today. My internet service has still been off and on and the last thing I want to do is talk to their customer service again. So one of the things I need to do is check into something else, other than Hughes satellite. Charter is finally available here but their sales folks cannot seem to understand that I want internet and NOT cable tv. The thought of no tv is too alien for most. Ok Lori you are right, I AM out of the ordinary. oh and I need to close my sale, but if you get there first I will still let you in
are you ready? this is going to be exciting
- clean the bedroom closet, or at least enough to find the fax machine way in the back
- send some faxes that are overdue,
- send some snail mail thank you letters to (eek gads) folks that helped with the wedding
- help my friend Candace with her blog
- work on some of my new Bless me Blogs
- make some organizational “hit lists” for this farm
- can 20 gal of tomatoes and freeze some okra

We get 5′ long black racer snakes in our hen house. I’d rather have the snake than the rat!

Wow, what a day you have planned. You’ll sleep well tonight. I love that you are sending Thank-yous. It has been years, YEARS since I have receieved a thank you note for anything wedding related, and now people aren’t even thanking me for shower gifts. I’m blown away. It’s becoming a lost art and I commend you for doing the right thing!

Now why wouldn’t you want to talk to their customer support folks again? Our office manager spent two hours talking with them yesterday, and I spent an hour and a half with technical support last night.
A woman in the “office of the president” at Hughes (really just another level of stonewalling and misdirection from their customer disservice department) told me that they offer the highest level of support. They are sorry that they can’t afford to run their call centers in this country (billing is in the Philippines, tech support in New Delhi), but they just can’t afford it. I told her I don’t watch Lou Dobbs, appreciate the new global economy, and its not where their people are, its that they’re not competent.
They want to use encryption, but their certificates are all from the directpc days. Their tech support people can’t deal with firefox, so they insist you run IE so they can look your problem up in their script.
We’re looking at MyBlueDish because this last debacle with them has finally convinced us these people aren’t competent to run a coin laundry, let alone a communications company.
