Finding Agreement

Someone made a comment as to my using 'We' on the list of questions a few posts back. I used the word we in reference to we, as the human race! This is a semantic disagreement. It was 'We' not leaving myself out. If I say, "How long is the human race going to", it is a bit cold, depersonalized and it is sounds like I am leaving myself out.

Have you heard of Magic Jack

This is just a sample of the craziness that is out there today with companies outsourcing their customer service. This would be funny, if it were not so sad!!! It is my experience with considering to buy a Magic Jack from a company (which tries to hide their name, address and telephone numbers) that, tells their 24 chat reps not to give out any information about how to get to the company by phone or their address.

If you get bored with this or know it all too well, skip down to my comments at the end. If this kind of thing is not abuse of power, I don't know what is? Ho
