They Know Better Than To Ask

Reprints of three seperate MSN Messenger conversations.

Sam : what do you think? richardbranson@virgin.com?
MSN contact : umm.. what are you trying to do?
Sam : correctly guess richard branson’s email address
MSN contact : you going to hassle beardy? I’d put a . in the middle, Dare I ask why?
Sam : do you think he’s maybe gone for richard@virgin.com?
MSN contact : I think most companies do first.last@company.com these days. How have virgin wronged you recently?
Sam : they haven’t. I am on a new mission
MSN contact : you’re not planning on telling him the error of his gaming cash for kills ways, right? Sorry. Im being humourless. As you were!
Sam : that’s not my style, is it?

Sam : what do you think? richardbranson@virgin.com?
MSN contact : I’m thinking rbranson@virgin.com. You may also consider richard.branson@virgin.com
Sam : I was toying with the idea of richard@virgin.com
MSN contact : what have virgin done this time?
Sam : nothing, I’m being friendly
MSN contant : oh right. Good luck. richard.branson@fly.virgin.com
Sam : you have insider knowledge?
MSN contact : http://www.connectotel.com/marcus/ceoemail.html and verified recently. Although tbf you will be PA screened
Sam : that kinda takes the fun out of things
MSN contact : oh I’m sorry. Return to your cave with your charcoal drawings /scowl. Moving forward your consumer rant emails may actually get more traction
Sam : if I send them to the right place?
MSN contact : pithy, humourous, succinct emails may be better received from CEO’s than stern, downtrodden, uncaring ‘Help Desks’. “Give this man free stuff.”
Sam : this is a valid point
MSN contact : “You there, marketing people, make a spectacle of this. Shower him in our love, money and swag.”
Sam : while I’m not in it for the swag, your suggestion has merit
MSN contact : “Free cartons of smokes, free clothes, gift vouchers, et al and you just need to sign here and have your picture taken (please smile). Thank you.”
MSN contact : /hand.shake
MSN contact : /wash.hand

Sam : what do you think? richardbranson@virgin.com?
MSN contact : Consumer champion preparing to strike again?
Sam : oddly enough, yes
MSN contact : spam all the variations in BCC.
Sam : cunning. You’re clearly not new to this
MSN contact : What’s he done now?
Sam : nothing, I’m just being cheery
MSN contact : Equally enjoyable.

  • Mission Objective

    One Domestic Badass versus the world.

    I get bored and enjoy arsing around on the internet, so when I can be bothered I write up some of what I get up to here. Regularity cannot be guaranteed. Constant high levels of writing quality are not promised. I occasionally use some spicy language and this may offend you, I'm pretty certain you'll get over it.

    Read it. Rate it. Comment on it. Or not. I'll keep updating anyway with or without you. Who needs you?
