TomazH,
Come on, surely you can produce something a bit more subtle than this!

Hurtle, Should "knob head" be one word?

I thought 'knob' referred to a small handle.....but then again, 'Nob' is in Israel....
I give up, I throw myself to the lions of pedantry....

Hurtle, at least according to the dictionary it is.....my preferred spelling for the context in which it is referred in this instance is without the 'k'

Guvnor, you should look at my most recently acquired reference book (all pedants have large collections of reference books) which I bought on stoatsbrother's recommendation. It's called Roger's Profanisaurus Rex and it's very, very droll. It implies that - at least in the context which I guess TomazH had in mind - the noun has a 'k' and the verb doesn't.
cathy, thanks. I see DG hasn't posted for about a week either. I'm worried people will talk...

TomazH, if they don't care a hoot, they should. Funny, but I have customers, and each and every one of their complaints and queries gets listened to. It shouldn't really matter if you are a small company or a large one.

Helen Beaumont, call me when you've got 150,000,000 customers and tell me what its like. Companies like the mighty Easyjet accept a certain complaint level is inevitable whatever they do.

Hurtle, not gone officially - but it has been quiet... too quiet....
TomazH, The named individual Smoking Joe mentioned sent out a letter/e mail with his name at the bottom which was completely inaccurate, and either he or the airline has have screwed up. Your choice of this thread, after some self-confessed lurking, as the one on which you trenchantly weigh-in is bound to make people ask if you do have a vested interest. When you then deign to let us know about the stunning new services the said airline is offering, even more supiscions are aroused. I hadn't abused you - at that stage , yet I am labelled part of a"clique of spotty schoolboys as named above". Actually I will have you know I am a raddled old git, and not part of any of the many malignant cliques that infest this forum.
I really loved - "I am not flogging my bootfitting services or hoping you will enjoy renting my flea-infested apartment or trying to pretend I am a ski instructor offering free advice." Nice style - andsince you do not work for E-J, I am guessing that you are in the Diplomatic Corp?
Perhaps I might suggest if you really are looking for spotty schoolboys, you may be on the wrong forum?

You called? Yes a 'complaint level' is almost inevitable (dependent upon that organisation's foul-ups) .... but Helen suggested that all complaints should be heard and responded to . IMO that is an excellent business mantra , excellent 'service recovery' being proven to outweigh the original failure ( read your Harvard Business Reviews) for the proof

TomazH, I agree that complaints are inevitable in a large business, but that is no excuse for the customer service being poor.

Ladies and gentlemen, idiots, spammers, tossers and spotty school boys, thank you for assisting me over the last few days. After this period of free management consultancy I think I can see what the problem is - none of you know anything about or can talk about matters of SNOW. This is a serious issue as it is obviously a breach of the Trade Descriptions Act. Your collective forte appears to be an utterly futile waste of life, bitchiness, rank idiocy and whingeing. My advice would be to officially change the name to Knobheads asap. Accordingly I have searched the Domain Names Registry and see that www.knobheads.biz is available. Unbelieveably .com, .co.uk etc have already been taken. I think .biz works well enough though. Of course this will entail a new outward appearance and slogan. Eat Snow, Think Snow etc might not work too well if you substitute the word Knob so I suggest “Become a Knobhead like us and talk drivel for free”. Might not be as catchy but probably more accurate. Now naff off.
