Quote from an Ameritech rep after being verbally abused in a meeting for them dropping a clients T-1 FOUR times cause nobody would write it down in the book: "We may suck, but we suck less!" At 10:04 PM 7/19/97 -0500, you wrote:
From someone-I-can't-name-cuzza-their-job: "MFS is the spawn of satan, it's all a conspiracy to send us back to the dark ages of hand-written communication."
How about the words that summ up MFS's (WorldCom's) entry into the local phone market:
My Fone Sucks...

It's not just the transmission side. In 1981 or so, at the first GTE corporate network symposium, shortly after it bought Telenet, I gave a presentation on Telenet's network management architecture. My obligatory opening joke suggested that electronic mail could be regarded as a technology that would allow the Postal Service to lose the mail at the speed of light. A hand in the audience arose...turning out to be the President/COO of GTE. He looked at me and asked "what about your own company's offering, Telemail?" I took a deep breath. "Oh. We lose it slower."
