Mar. 17th, 2004 04:31 amHere is a friend's excellent rant, on a particularly aggravating manifestation of not being taken seriously. I really wish this weren't such a common problem.
Speaking of aggravating, my ISP only just let me reconnect, after periodic tries since before midnight. The second outright network outage in a couple of weeks...grrr. That doesn't even include the night last week that I kept apparently connecting but couldn't even ping anything on their network. The mail server is down at least once a week now, and this is not for maintenance. Before this last bunch bought them out, I had no complaints about the service--it was actually quite good. This is not the best time for them to have sent me a billing statement for another year's service (with increased charges), that's for certain. Even though I'm not expecting to be here much longer, I really should do some ISP shopping. Sid will need it, if nothing else.
