Same old hotline - just a new marketing campaign & slogan

»www.foxbusiness.com/story/market···16630733

The EMBARQ(TM) Consumer Affairs Hotline has been in place for years and is listed in the front of phone books. The company said it hopes the enhancement will make more consumers aware that the hotline is available.

Just a new spin on a service that wasn't working very well.

Dana Chase, vice president of network services for EMBARQ, is so committed to making customers happy that she's also added a new responsibility to her title -- to be the Customers' BFF, or in the texting world, "Best Friend Forever."

Is the VP 16 years old? What a pathetic slogan.

The tragic part about what you've brought up is that this sort of nonsense is now rampant in the corporate world as well as in everyday society. It also rears its ugly head within a number of postings throughout the DSLR forums. I'm an adult and expect to converse with other adults in a (Gasp! Here comes some intolerance!) adult manner. I'm not interested in seeing a bunch of cutesy Internet acronyms as a regular form of communication; such immature drivel is best left to seventh graders out in the playground during school recess. We all know the ones I'm referring to, so don't ask me for examples. Same for those cell phone freaks and their asinine text messages back and forth to each other as if they were playing electronic ping-pong.

It's bad enough most of these "scholars" graduating high school today can barely accomplish the proverbial walking and chewing gum at the same time, no less actually being able to read and write at a level somewhere above the level they could read and write at puberty.
