It almost seems a little unfair, though ... well, almost.

Being that 2 of the them are part of the big 3 ISPs trying to get rid of net neutrality (Verizon and AT&T alongside Comcast), I approve of Tilly squeezing money out of them for a change.

Completely measured and precise speech, except for a slight wobble that may be perceived as the pressure on the line between your life and death right now.

The only trouble with unleashing on mobile phone companies is the difficulty of getting hold of the executives who make the mind bogglingly customer hostile policies, and not the poor minimum wage peons who are IME clearly terrified they'll be booted for making the slightest variation from the script. I had to sit in a shop for an hour and a half before they could get some one who had the authority to say, yes, they can swap a sim carrier over from another phone to replace the one they lost, and not make me wait two weeks and exchange the whole frigging phone...

--- Quote from: BenRG on 26 Nov 2017, 23:19 ---This is me but I can't help but wonder how much of Tilly's achievement came from precisely the same set of malfunctions that we've all been complaining about in terms of her behaviour towards Hannelore: Relentless cheer and an utter inability to understand a negative response if it is not in line with her personal objectives. Basically, the customer service rep gave in to shut her up and get her off the line. I'm pretty sure that this works IRL and is the basis of the telesales industry.

Given that her skill set is precisely that of an excellent telemarketing phonedrone, her beating them at their own game might have the unintended side-effect of instigating the one or other minor religion.
We'll know when CoD is flooded with glazed-eyed, headset-wearing folk chanting Mahdi! and Lisan-al-Tilly ...!

Bubbles isn't cute, she's awesome! :-D

She somehow succeeded at being both, imo...
