So there I was, watching Full screen TV, kicking back with a brew or two, and I get a phone call.
It’s the illustrious Ogden Standard Examiner, or some call center hired by the paper to generate income from subscription sales.
So after her pitch told the lady some month and a half now, that guess what? Still yet to see a newspaper. The good points here, no bill, so they’re not barking for money, but why call then not deliver. Seems like that is a big thing today. I have been going through this with not only outside vendors here lately but associates as well. Go to a modeling agency, they say our project is a bot over the top for them, so go to another get promised an audition session, but the finally bug out due to concerns of some adult themed content of ours, (hey never said HazzardAyre was for toddlers}. So that agency bugged out, then went to another called TMG, out of Murray, Utah they set up a great audition, I like the staff and the director, just wish Vickie would get in touch and lets put the talent part together were back up and ready to go. In essence our nuts are refilled we’re ready for some serious action .
But getting to the paper, and none delivery , that seems to be a common thing these days, promise a lot, but then can’t deliver. Its called in southern rebel circles , letting ones mouth over ride ones Jaybird ass. In legal terms its called borderline fraud, not quite enough to stimulate a court action, but close enough to get the Federal Trade Commission’s eye.
Which the Standard Examiner has done. Reports from our FTC insider says that the FTC is examining several cases where a call center acting on behalf of the Standard Examiner, called elderly people, taking money but not delivering the newspaper as promised.
Now I shouldn’t do this but I will.
Back in 2011 When we here in the Knytes decided to publish, not just online but on paper distributed via paid subscription, as a newspaper, the Hazzard County Gazzette has arrived on the door of every subscriber , every other week, all week, come rain or shine. The publication of course is muled by our MC and as such deliver people are not difficult to locate. But still we have never failed to deliver. Likewise this and all blogs that are in many cases the content of the Hazzard Gazzette, are not only written daily, but sometimes updated three times a day, but never have we failed to deliver.
With us there is not much if at all any shuck and jive, if the Knytes say we’re doing something, it’ll happen or get done. Even if somebody gets it between the eyes.
So I ask you Ogden Standard Newspaper, where’s MY newspaper?
