Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

When we were done I asked the rep. if I could tell someone how helpful she was. Now this is tht second time I've done this in about a year and I swear both times the people sounded like they were gonna cry. Customer Service people almost never get props, so if you have a good experience, take another minute and let their supervisor know.

I've done this (with Verizon reps actually) twice.

But then I noticed that Verizon, both on the phone and actually in a store, have markedly improved their customer service now that mobile numbers can be ported to another provider. Still, very good customer service should be acknowledged. In the hopes that it is viral and will infect others.

I am billing clients and my boss must be channeling Reagan. I swear there is voodoo economics involved.

I finally am understanding how she estimates but I will never understand how she bills. Nor how I can do the same billing and get similar numbers but in drastically different ways.

most wireless providers have. they finally realized that the #1 reason that people stayed with their provider is because they didn't want to lose their number. Now that's not an issue, they've straightened up.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

New York City is in the midst of a cupcake war.

The Horror!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Speaking of which, I saw a woman on the train last night who had a cupcake tatoo. Her other tats included flames and a star.

Now tagless for your comfort.

The Cupcake Cosa Nostra. Evil, but tasty.

Now I'm going to have to bake some more damned cupcakes.

Since I live in New York, I don't have to!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

Ever since I put my name on a "Do Not Call" list I haven't gotten many telemarketers. Can't say I miss them much.

Sophia, I think you should lock all parties involved in a small room, with foam rubber cricket bats. The survivor will be let out when s/he tells you where the contract is.

I think the cupcake people are kind of all a bit nutty.

What is even happening?

I want cupcakes, but I don't have any Dutched cocoa and am too lazy to go get some, also, my neck is still a little iffy, and I don't like to drive unnecessarily, and backing out of parking spaces is not my favorite activity.

People should just send me the freaking cupcakes, okay?
