No "buts" !!!

If the emails are important enough then you make arrangements, or make sure
you are near an internet cafe or take your laptop with you !!

If I were looking to place an order, and I got an OOO, I would go elsewhere.
No "if's" - no "buts". I am obviously unimportant to them. My opinion. And I
know plenty of managers/directors/CEO's who think exactly the same way.
OOO's demonstrate bad planning and/or service. ESPECIALLY when they get sent
to lists such as this [1].

All the best

Come on - SOMEONE PLEASE send an OOO to this list within the next 1/2 hr -
