Where’s Janice Myint in Customer Service?

I wrote an email this morning to Janice. It was the first that I wrote in two weeks. My reason for writing was because I hadn’t heard from her. I didn’t want to bug her . . . I knew her load had to be enormous and I try really hard to be the nice one. So here’s what I wrote.

Janice,
I haven’t heard from you are you swamped under?
I hope you’re not sick or really under pressure.
Smiles,
Liz

A few seconds later, I received this response from my friend, MAILER-DAEMON.

… while talking to technorati.com.s5a1.psmtp.com.:

I know we know what we’ve lost here. Do you think that they do? I think they need to. Mr. Sifry, “looking into it,” hasn’t been enough. Janice made things happen. Now what?

The Technorati Brand

Customers decide what a company’s brand is and what it is worth. Heck, a business is not a business without customers. Would you take a moment to answer this question?

What’s Technorati’s brand value to you?

I think it’s time that we explain the situation in a calm, polite business-like fashion. Maybe then someone will hear what we’ve been saying.

After all, I am the nice one.
