Its a dirty job...but someone has to do it.


Well, having a little trouble with the email since switching back to high speed internet. So, since Aliant has a new thing called Net Assistant. I thought I would give it a hook.

Its supposed to be like a chat.

Your trouble report has been assigned to Technical Support Agent Peter S.


Great! Now we are getting somewhere. This is too cool.

The Technical Support Agent has requested to close this incident.


WTF? Exactly a second after he was "assigned" the report, he asked to have it closed. So basically this Net Assistant is really just an assistant to the techs, to keep us from calling them by phone. Nice work. If you can get it.
