[ChrichtonsGirl]

So was it good for you?

 

[Viper GTS]

Actually, it really had nothing to do with Cisco.

[FrogDog]

You talked to Russ in what context, Viper?

 

[Viper GTS]

He called me on the telephone.

[Duckers]

[Croton]

[Farbio]

[Electric Amish]

Damn! I hope people from here don't start calling me....

amish

 

[Viper GTS]

I'm not going to give any specifics, I'll just say that I do tech support, & Russ called me. I was shocked, to say the least.

[vi edit]

sniff, sniff, do I smell a job offer

 

[flood]

Russ: Viper, we need to talk.

 

[FrogDog]

Oh OK I figured it was a tech spport thing. That's pretty cool. How exactly did you know it was him?

 

[Russ]

Well, I finally got tired of dealing with the numbnuts's on the .net side of US West, so I called the Megabit side and talked to someone who knows what they're doing.

Russ, NCNE

 

[Viper GTS]

How exactly did you know it was him?

There aren't very many people named Russ who run a business called CompuCheap in Kent, Washington.



Viper GTS

 

[Moonbeam]

If you're talking to numbnuts, you're way too close to the microphone.

 

[Viper GTS]

so I called the Megabit side and talked to someone who knows what they're doing

Not like I did that much...

<< There aren't very many people named Russ who run a business called CompuCheap in Kent, Washington. >>



No, I suppose not.

 

[Russ]

<< Not like I did that much... >>



More in five minutes, than three or four hours with the .net side, a half dozen phone calls, and being passed around from tech to tech, twiddling my thumbs on hold for 20 minutes at a time while they searched the world for someone who knew what I was talking about.

Russ, NCNE

 

[ratkil]

We really don't want to know what you do with your thumbs Russ.

and yes, I am just jealous you were actually able to get a compatent person in tech support. Hey, Viper why don't you go work at Southwestern Bell..........

 

[Electric Amish]

So, Viper, I'm in the USWest (now Qwest) area. If I were to call you, you could get me my DSL???

amish

 

[Czar]

So what was the problem?
