Hello,

Microsoft tells me to "go and play with my computer" !!
what the hell kind of contact and respect is that?

Someone from microsoft (boy I wish he told me his name)
calls me and asks for to verify my information because
I am listed as the contact person for my company.
I was not aware that I was listed as a contact person for
my company, and asked the person for what reason/agreement
am I listed as a contact person for. He just stated there
is no agreeement. I enquired somemore and stated my 
concern that I think the information may be incorrect
or they have the wrong contact person because I knew
my company did have a Solutions Providers agreement with
Microsoft, but I didn't think I should be the contact person
for this. He stated that emails would be sent to me and
needed to verify my information. I stated again my concern
about me might not being the right contact person. He said
he would just delete me then as the contact person. 
I stated that it would not be a good idea to not have
any contact person and would be irresponsible to just delete
it. So again I asked what kind of service/agreement was the
Contact Person for so I can find out more informatino from
my company. Then he just tells me to 

"go and play with my computer" and hangs up.

Whatever.. what kind of people does microsoft hire to represent them?
that really pissed me off.
