Totally Uncalled for Post... NOT OUT OF BUSINESS

[CARIBOULH@xxxxxxx]

WOW... Tim Freeman really must have jumped to about 27 uncalled for 
conclusions in writing in AD #515 that I had gone out of business... no Tim, I've been 
here since 1981!!!

What is happening is that I am preparing to move to a new location on 
Tuesday, June 3rd and as part of that procedure I called the phone company (Pacific 
Bell) last week to make arrangements for them to switch my phone service on 
THAT Tuesday to the new location.... so you know what they did??

They tried to switch it yesterday, TUESDAY, May 21st!!! For about 3 hours in 
the morning (until I figured out what had happened and went home to call to 
correct it since I could not call from here) they had attempted to switch my 
numbers to a location that is not even set up for them yet.. hence the difficulty 
in getting thru, but Tim, I heard it and the message the phone company had on 
and it DID NOT say that anyone had gone out of business, just that the number 
was TEMPORARILY out of service.

Also, as some of you may know, my full-time phone answerer/secreatry (and 
answering phones here IS a FULL-TIME job) had to move away unexpectedly just over 
3 weeks ago. Since that time I have been trying to do her FULL-TIME job along 
with the 6 other s that I do here each day and since my phone answering 
efficiency is far, far less than what her's was it is taking me longer to deal with 
each and every individual phone call so some of you may had had a tough time 
getting thru to me recently.

That is hopefully solved a new employee to do that phone/secretary job starts 
tomorrow on Friday so things should be getting back to normal, oh, except for 
that move. I'll be spending almost all my time taking things off shelves, 
boxing them up, unbolted shelves, disassembling desks, packing up inventory, 
taking apart computers, moving stuff, throwing stuff away so I can be ready for 
the movers when they show up. Then I need to put it all back together on the 
other end.

So if we seem a little preoccupied right now, at least until we get set up in 
the new location, please accept my apologizes in advance, but OUT OF 
BUSINESS??? I wish, then I could finally have a vacation for the first time in 13 
years, but thanks for the chuckle Tim and I will accept your apology in advance.

Best Wishes,
