Dear New Horizons:

I'd be more interested in taking your training courses for the MCSE if you would just tell me what they cost on the fricking web site instead of making me fill out a form so one of your people could call me. Yeebus.

Oh, man, I hate that. It's not like refinishing a basement with all kind of options and if it is, that's just wrong.

At least that's a good indicator that they cost a LOT. :)

$1275 for one of the courses. One of their people got back to me a little while ago.

Hello, camwyn!

To learn more about what Rooth thinks about this, please enter your name, telephone number, mailing address, email address, and first five and last four digits of your social security number into the form below. Then Rooth can contact you and say, "I totally hate that!" ;)

As Bill Shatner said on his recent CD: "Everyone knows everything about all of us! That's too much knowledge!" *grin*

I've been getting calls at work lately that pose as semi-wrong-numbers. They call me asking for someone else who works there. They have a hard time believing me when I say "I've never heard of him." We have 2500 people on our campus .. though I've been there for 11 years now, odds are good that I've never heard of the guy they're looking for. The best part is, I call myself only "Dragon" in my voicemail message, and that's how I answer the phone, so they don't get a 'freebie' phone number mapping from me! Muahaha.

Now wait for the inscessant spam!

I hate sites that do that.

And unless they are the only ones providing, or I'm desperate for a chance of a better price, they never hear from me and they never get my business.

I read it as a de facto admission that "our prices SUCK!"
