a phone call with a pleasant but direct attitude gets a lot more done than a po'd sob with a chip on his/her shoulder looking to throw anybvody and everybody under the bus. i tell folks all the time "i'm not trying to waste your time" or that "i'm not trying to screw up your day" but i most certainly will unless things go my way. and i'll do it with a whole bunch of "thank you's" and "please's".


I tried the calling and emailing thing it got me no where so I am ramping it up to public shame it always seems to get results
