All Hail Plesk

When you can’t have a dedicated rack in a swank datacenter and LiveVault attached to do automated on-the-fly delta differential backups, you’ve always got Virtual Private Servers and Plesk. Gone are the scary days of running a server under the desk with an antiquated tape drive running unconfirmed backups. Today we get world class connectivity, managed off-site backup service and Plesk as a server management tool. Systems have never been so streamlined and efficient. And all of this for amazingly low prices.

Thanks Plesk, because of you I can sleep at night.

Hertz Hurts

What was the reason for your previous customer satisfaction survey response?

The self check-in kiosks were a complete failure and waste of time. The line to pick up the vehicle was extremely slow though there were only two customers in front of me. The service representatives were coarse and terse. I was asked to downgrade my vehicle selection in exchange for an unneeded GPS device because “it would take some time to access the vehicle of your selected class.” When I declined the downgrade and asked for the wait time suddenly a car was instantly available. Not trusting this service representative after this exchange, I declined one of your refueling options (one I should have selected) and in the end paid more than I should have. Why do you have two or more refueling options? I’m sure you have your reasons, but in my case it complicated matters such that it aided in my complete dissatisfaction with your service. You should aim to make customers happy first by making our selections easy, then work out how to sneak more of our money on things like a “concession recovery fee.”

To Which Side Do You Lean?

A friend sent me this: http://www.fedupusa.org. Not to be remiss, I did a quick search to find an argument to the contrary. It was easy: http://www.slate.com/id/2195308

In every complicated argument there are intelligent people and misguided intelligent people. I’m still working out who is who. On which side of this issue do you fall? I’m undecided but leaning toward favoring the “bailout” bill.
