"The concept was timely when I first joined. I had a problem with my account and sent in help deesk tix. Ther was omething happening with the page on your site when I brought it up and suggested that something may be wrong with the page, I got a very rude response, Theres nothing wrong with the page, what are you talking about" type energy that me feel frustrated and I don't pay for rudeness. So I learned how to build my own app, you see I'm 40 years in thech business, adn I know when something is wrong and it has nothing to do with me, so I built my own app and now it write my books for me, you played yourself, got arrogant, I believe you are have your Doctorate, in what I dont know, but your arrogance is sickening, and I work with dentists everyday. That's why doctors and real techs don't necessarily get along, because you try to tell us like you know more about what we do than we do, and that freakin arrogance."
