 I luv it. Most of you pinheads on dslreports just luv to complain about the baby bells and you moan that they are so terrible etc.

so here is a prefect example that its not as easy to Run a Telco company as you may think. Fairpoint has a captive audience in its customer base as rual folks don’t have a lot of choices – and they still are messing it up.

People complain because everyone, except the regulators that allowed it, knew this was coming. Nobody says its an easy task to run a telco. Its just the exact opposite. This is why people complained about this aquisition...everyone knew it was doomed from the start!
