Went to get some laundry services and called the number. I was leery as I am in Toronto area and number was Nova Scotia.

A male sounding person answered and I started posing questions about laundry services they offered. This guy was the politest person I had heard in over a decade. Concise but vague. I thought it was VOIP delay as there was a 3-5 second pause for him to reply but realized that it was too consistent. It was a fucking AI attendant talking at me. I said stick your AI, I will not be using your services and hung up.

Grrrrr me want human.

    It’s up to me? I am not in control of every single city or county especially in the states. More than 60% of the states do not even have basic reading skills. Sure they will do it right /s. Now your just being silly. Never used crypto, never will. Have a good one.

      Your actions are up to you, yes. Whether you choose to interact or not in your water utilities or regulation boards is up to you.

      I am not in control of every single city or county especially in the states. More than 60% of the states do not even have basic reading skills. Now you just being silly.

      Getting involved and taking action locally is silly? I have no idea what your literacy comment has to do with anything we’re talking about.

      Have a good one.

      Thanks, you too. If you’d like to join me at my co-op annual water meeting, its in July. Hit me up and we’ll go together. If you were a member, you could even run for the board yourself and directly affect water policy in the county. You won’t be able to vote for board members because you’re not a member of the co-op like I am, but you can see how it works and where we have a voice.

        Sure I can get involved locally I am talking about the dumb and corrupt govts that will continue to mismanage that are 1000’s of km away from you and me. Neither of us can control them.
