Welcome to my blog. Coffee and sarcasm served here with a touch of sass and sunshine. Follow me through all of my missteps and mishaps.

Look I know companies are trying to save money and maybe automation works in some cases, but if you want to sell me something at least have the temerity to put a real person on the phone.
