Make Noise!
Sooner or later NS Stocks will start to fall. The shareholders will ask why,
and someone will give them the answer. Do they know what really is going on?
Do they really monitor the tech support calls? I find it hard to believe
that anyone with sense would let a company be run like that.
I've had it up to here *holding hand way above head* with NSI.
This is a service industry. And those with the service will survive. And the
others? well it's only a matter of time.
P.S. Can you really eat on a holodeck? or is the food a hologram,...
holofood?
