@Shutterstock got a bullshit email from you today. Subject: "Less than 50% of your downloads are left" and body: Your pack expires soon." Checked my acct. I paid for 25 d/l. I have 8 left; they expire April 2027.

So WTAF is this email about? Tricking me to enable autorefill?

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

@costplusdrugs haven't recd my Rx. Customer svc hasn't responded. What are my next steps?

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

@INDairport I posted that ovr a yr ago & it still pisses me off every time I'm at IND. I don't want to walk half a mile to concourse A or B just to find out I chose the wrong one and have to retrace my steps. Every airport in the world has FIDS close to where you exit security. It's total BS

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

.@INDairport why isn't there a FIDS when you come out of security? And the only one in the rotunda is BEFORE the rotunda at cust svc. C'mon, you're better than this.

Is this the UnitedHealthOne logo? This squashed logo is a screenshot from the patient portal. It appears like this on every page. This is the kind of thing that makes me wonder if it's a legit site or a scam. @askUHC

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

@IIB Would love to see better signage at IND. I mean come on, there's not even a flight board anywhere near security. What kind of airport makes you walk the length of a football field to find the nearest flight and gate listings?

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

.@CarmelFarmMrkt Your website lists dates May 4 - September 28 and October 21 - March 30. Curious about April and early October -- are you just closed then?

.@Ember_Tech Lid for my not-quite 6-mo old travel mug broke. Sent support request Dec 13, followup w/ pix Dec 14, no response. Total black hole. :-(

I know you're busy, but I'm super missing my travel mug! Help, please!

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

.@verizon @verizonsupport Shoutout to tech Raven who got me sorted out with the internet gateway box in record time. Will keep an eye on the speeds, but here's hoping I can finally get rid of @comcast @xfinity

New MSFT Office theme incoming....

@TheTroubleClub @MargaretAtwood @torontolibrary I can't get in. I had a join now button that just keeps circling back to the event page.

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

.@Chase
a client is telling me my routing # <9 digits> is coming up as Bank One Indiana NA. I called Chase business customer svc, and they tell me it's the correct #. Why is it not appearing as Chase?

Today I learned:

I like my coffee really hot.

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

Alexa: playing NPR
Me: Alexa, stop.
Alexa: I don't know how to do that.
Me: Alexa, stop.
Alexa: I don't know how to do that.
Me: [unplugging device] This is why I don't have kids.

@JamieGarroch @Outlook Let your inner potty mouth rejoice. ;-)

By the way, turning it off in one Office app seems to turn it off in all the Office apps.

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

Free the potty mouth!

[Jamie Garroch @JamieGarroch]

Do you like being censored by people, or even worse, software - that you paid for? Me neither. Now you can dictate the email you actually wanted to send with @Outlook by turning this thing all the way off. Thanks @echosvoice for the heads up!

I worked with some true super heroes recently. Join @echosvoice , @lorichollar , Troy Chollar, and me on e158 of @pres_podcast as we talk about the lessons we learned from optimizing 150 PowerPoint presentations in 4 days. We spared @NolanHaims from the strain (missed you).

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

@julieterberg @jschwabish @NolanHaims @DataRevelations I agree with this.

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

@ACLUIndiana I was there. I think I'm just barely out of camera range!

[Echo Swinford @echosvoice]

@middlefischer @ACLUIndiana @NARAL That's exactly right, but we don't have to to back and take it in silence. We have to vote.
