Re: the police was dispatched to ... the wrong house



Okay. If I am a story teller, I want to tell a story. Suppose there a
company that has an employee that has a last name that sounds like say LIKE
for example. This is not a real company mind you. Suppose that company
through its infinite wisdom and at the same time infinite departmental
compartmentalization has made a blunder that has somehow turned into a
policy. Suppose that policy is to do something really stupid, but it is a
policy. And everyone knows no one can question policy in any big mother ship
company. Perhaps that policy is related to a certain line of proprietary
panels the mother ship company uses. In real life these panels don't
actually exist, nor does the policy, or the company for that matter. Suppose
if you are a dealer of this panel you can't program it locally or remotely,
only the big mother ship can do that. Well suppose you're sick of that, as
well as being sick of the big mother ship company and want to be able to
program the panels at least locally yourself. Perhaps you want to change
monitoring facilities away from the big mother ship as well someday, but
only someday in the future. So the big mother ship calls the panels and puts
in a code that allows you to access and program the panels locally. You
still can't call the panels up since they are locked up for the mother ship
only to remotely program. Well that is great, the big mother ship calls up
all, yes every single one of your panels and puts in a code that allows you,
the local dealer that owns the accounts, to program the panels locally. What
a concept, a dealer that can actually program his own panels. So what is the
problem here? The dealer can program his own panels and the big mother ship
continues to monitor the accounts and bill for it and everyone is happy,
right? (At this point I like to think that LIKE is reaching for the Rolaids
because he just may know of this policy, and if he really doesn't yet know
the story, he knows a train wreck is very near at hand). The policy? Yes the
policy. What might that be? Well when the mother ship tells you the code to
get into the panels, perhaps the default factory code for example, and even
if it keeps billings you for monitoring the panels, the policy says to
remove the account number and the central station receiver number from each
and every panel they put a code in that the local dealer can access. Wait a
minute, that is all of the accounts, yet the mother ship still bills you for
monitoring all of the accounts? Oh but they don't tell you any of that, they
bill you and say your accounts are fine and being monitored like before.
Many dealers here wouldn't understand how a panel can be monitored without
an account number or a central station receiver number programmed in the
panel. But they like don't understand LIKE. If the dealer doesn't find all
this out on his own, the mother ship waits until say someone gets broken
into, perhaps suffers a loss, and then the mother ship pays restitution to
the end user and hush money to the dealer. Perhaps that is policy too? Of
course LIKE can say it never happened. But as they say now you know the rest
of the story, that never happened. Some big companies pay money to folks to
make sure stories like this one that never happened never get told to
anyone. I wonder if like LIKE anyone can explain that policy? I guess it's
something like policy stinks sometimes, and stinks a lot coming out of a big
inept lying corporate ass. It sure is funny how there are some corporate
checks I have had my hands on recently, with names that sound an awful lot
like names in a police report I have had my hands on recently as well. Maybe
I should post pictures of them all together somewhere the next time I get
accused of being a story teller. Maybe then someone could connect the dots.
Just maybe.
