@AskUSBank Thoughts on how I can get a small credit card issue resolved without having to talk to someone on the phone? You have no branches near me.

[Washington Post Opinions @PostOpinions]

Have ever wondered what goes on inside the Department of Labor? Here's just one story: a former coal miner led the development of industry-wide standards and practices to prevent roof falls in underground mines, leading to the first year (2016) of no roof fall fatalities in the United States.

At the Internal Revenue Service — aka the IRS — is a department that led the rescue of 23 children from rape and assault, along with the seizure of a quarter-million child abuse videos and the arrest of 370 alleged pedophiles.

These stories are just the tip of the iceberg of all the unrecognized work being done in the American federal government, highlighted by Michael Lewis and six other writers in “Who Is Government?: The Untold Story of Public Service,” available now everywhere.

How it started. How it's going.

@VerizonSupport That is a lie. I spent two hours on the phone with Verizon "Support" this morning before being summarily dismissed with a promise someone who could actually help me would call me at 3 PM. Can you guess what happened (or rather, didn't)?

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@VerizonSupport You are the absolute worst. So many hours of my life incinerated by your incompetence. You should be ashamed of yourselves, honestly.

@VerizonSupport Already following as this is not my first go-round with you...

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@VerizonSupport Why do you make it so hard to do literally anything? I just ordered a new $1000 phone and you got the shipping address wrong and I can't find any way to change it.

@DFWAirport Did you seriously just take my money, pretending @BREWEDfw takes orders from DFWordernow? Now I’m hungry AND angry. 🤬

The pre-ACA situation really was that bad — so bad people can’t believe it was real!

@USAA_help What’s going on?

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@USAA_help I would prefer to put this in writing, as my complaint concerns phone conversations being ignored or forgotten about...

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@USAA_help It’s been more than 3 weeks since I heard anything about my claim. Where is my car?!

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@USAA_help I need to know the best way to submit a formal complaint.

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@USAA_help Hello?

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@USAA_help What is the best way for me to make a formal complaint in writing, please?

[Lindsay Eagle @_like_the_bird]

@USAA_help And?
