Check out this fantastic customer service from New York based ChipZone;

A few weeks ago I placed an order for a little gizmo that converts the lead from a PlayStation Dual Shock controller into a USB plug for the PC. When the little adapter failed to arrive, I e-mailed ChipZone to let them know and to ask if they could trace it for me. The response from Joe at ChipZone has been nothing short of incredible!

I suggested that the way I’d put my address into their online order form might have caused the mix up. Joe got back to me and said that it sometimes happens – he had put another adapter in the post for me and I should have it by next week. He explained that the one which went missing will probably find its way back to them.

Isn’t that amazing? – To my mind it’s customer service that you couldn’t buy or bribe out of a shop in the UK.

Verisign. You know the ones – the useless cretins behind Network Solutions who allow less honest individuals to waltz away with the domain names of decent people.

Yep – that’s Verisign.

Granted, the above attempt at a Google Bomb doesn’t seem to be working in the slightest, but it cant to any harm to keep linking to the article showing how crap Verisign are.

Fliss’s (go on Unwin – slate me for that grammar!) job has come to an abrupt end! She asked for Wednesday morning off to go for an interview, which is meant to be cool if you’re just a temp, as they know you’re not there for ever… kind of thing.

Well, anyway, when she got in yesterday there was an e-mail confirming that she could have the morning off… and the rest of her life, too, as the person she is temping for is returning.

Hopefully Fliss will find something else soon, and not just another temping job either.
