• Bank of America on Twitter = WIN!

  

  I’m sick of bad customer service.  It seems like I’m always dealing with giant conglomerate X and their horrible customer (dis)service infrastructure.  I have to believe that No Doubt’s was written by a customer service agent at a call center:

  You think that we connect
  That the chemistry's correct
  Your words walk right through my ears
  Presuming I like what I hear

  Sorry I'm not home right now
  I'm walking into interwebs
  So leave a message
  And I'll call you back

  But it’s truly refreshing when good customer service triumphs over evil.  Like my recent experience with Bank of America.

   

• Belated Xmas Thank Yous & Digital Gift Cards

  
  Dan Buccaneer
  

  As an awesome boss thing to do, Dan gave his team Amazon gift cards for Christmahanakwanzika. Mid-February, I realized that I had not sent him a proper thank you, along with Matt. (Yes, I know, I should be on VH1’s Tool Academy.) Anisha did the right thing and sent him a thank you gift - females must have a part of the prefrontal cortex that manages prompt thank you card writing.
  
  So, with the help of Ellen, Matt and I have purchased a belated holiday gift for the Buczaczers.
  
  Dan was recently featured at the WOMMA conference as Dan "Buccaneer" instead of Buczaczer. Of course, we never let good jokes die, so the following was ordered for him, from CostumeCraze.com:
  Gold Pirate Coins
  Toddler Pirate Girl Costume
  Jack Sparrow Headband with Hair
  Adult Black Swashbuckler Pirate Costume Shirt
  Pirate Dog Costume
  Deluxe Adult Velvet Pirate Hat
  Pirate Pack Earring
  
  I would like Dan to respond with a post filled with pictures, preferably before Halloween 2009. At least the dog, please.
  
  Now, let us discuss my hatred for gifts and gift cards…
