I guess you don't listen much to others because people like me and many others have said the same thing for a long time.. However, Qwest is finally moving from red back to black. If they play their cards right, they might be able to pull something off.
Here's the thing too, if you know this - Qwest has the WORST territory, physically, for delivering service to subscribers. They have an area with HORRIBLE weather conditions such as both heat and cold extreams, snow, ice, tornados, as well as mountain terrain and other physical barriers. No one in the industry has ever dismissed this fact and all recognize it as a major challenge for Qwest/US West.
However, arm chair quarterbacking this particular company is not a easy thing to do because they can and will surprise you. Doens't mean that I am still not thinking they won't be around in the next decade - but that's because of their history of total lack of caring about their customers - nothing more. |
