Someone better check on the gerbil

My favourite part is the "insert empathy statement".

Here's one for you. Sorry the gerbil died.

I thought you would like this. This is a reply I received about a question asking why my trip was not eligible for refund since we sat at union with door issues. We were late already and by the time they got them open it was 18 minutes over the arrival time.
In trust you will remove any names/e-mail addresses.
Thanks,
Pacman

  2. Proof positive that Customer Relations under the directorship of http://linkd.in/1y98HbN (copy/paste to address bar) is sloppy, lackadaisical, and does not care.
