This is because they are on Siebel 7.8.2.3. If they just installed the patch for 7.8.2.16, which includes support for all of this, then there would be no issue. The patch would only take a few hours of downtime so there's no excuse for this. These patches have been available for many years.
That's not true. You can try sending messages to yourself and checking your message count online, even if you don't read them. Besides, I can see most of a txt message in the preview popup on my Treo before I even open it. I can also mark them as read/unread, just like email messages.
It may not be obvious, but you can actually take money out on a credit card at the casino cashier window. You don't have to go to the machine first; it just helps speed along the process and keeps the line moving. Most of the casinos in vegas process their transactions through Global Cash which also runs the ATM machines at the casinos. When you do take money out on a credit card at these windows they also take your thumb print, check your ID, and have you on video as evidence of the transaction, so they are much less at risk for chargebacks.
Fry: I heard one time you single handedly defeated a horde of rampaging somethings in the something something system.
Zapp: The Killbots? A trifle. It was simply a matter of outsmarting them.

Zapp: You see the killbots have a preset kill limit; knowing their weakness I sent wave after wave of my own men at them until they reached their limit and shutdown.
Well, power companies use really high voltage on long runs to reduce loss due to the inherent resistance in the lines. But if you are running these through all of the layers of the atmosphere, I would think that there would be some issues with electrical storms and such. Also there would be the maintenece costs of the cables themselves. I think the whole point for microwave power is that it would be the most effiecent means. Also, we have the technology now instead of waiting for them to figure out how to make a cable for the space elevator out of this miracle nano tube stuff.
I think some companies like to use the hold time for ads. However, this can backfire if you leave people on hold too long, because they will get more upset and start making up their own "versions" of your ads. I think what works best is some easy listening or classical music from a local radio station. This way you get the variety that you would not have to keep up with yourself.
21. Break room with full kitchen. Hot/cold beverages (non-alcoholic) for free.
But seriously, all your points after this ones are a bit excessive depending on the size of the company. Usually one of us will rotate getting lunch if everyone wants to order. But our schedules are pretty flexible, so any errands that I need to run during the day, I can, and then just work a little later in the evening.
...Advertising companies would threaten to chop the heads off of cute adorable kittens threatening "if you don't buy, the kitten dies" if they thought they could get away with it...

For those that didn't get the joke. I think it was modded funny because the grandparent was implying that most democrats are gay.
Bombing for peace is like screwing for virginity

How is that? Pointless but fun trying?
The uncoveror is a well know fake news site. It just seems some of the modds were too cracked out to check the url from this article.

If he wanted to get out of there faster, he could have just removed the sort spec and sorted it later.
Last year one of the dealers told me:

If his name is ParticleMan911...maybe he's a superhero?
This feature was also in Visual Interdev 6 which was released around 1998(?)
From the article:
If it gets funding, it plans to photograph the 25 largest cities in the country over the next five years using more than a dozen vans.

Funny, at first it took me a few seconds to realize that you wern't refering to Fox News.
No, they have to fly naked.
