Women can probably relate to this. It's like the guys who say my mom does
this, my mom does that, and they want to say then marry your mom.

Please give me a reasonable quite. I currently have a Comcast connection
and if you guys could give me a lower rate and a better service I will
switch to you
I had someone actually show up at my office (we don't run a visit our
office kind of office) to discuss with me how bad their current WISP was
and how it was hurting their business. If I could give them a better
price for better speeds and an SLA they'd switch to me. Then they said
currently paid $29/month so that was the price to beat. I declined as
politely as I could but what I really wanted to say was enjoy your
crappy WISP because you're getting exactly what you're willing to pay for.
Then there was a guy that was all "your competitors does this" and "your
competitors do that" to everything and eventually I said this is what we
do, we're not our competitors so if you want what they do then just use
them.
