Angie is a Bit Nutty Today

A while back I was investigating Angie’s List to see what it was all about. I made the mistake of providing the site my email address before realizing it was a pay site. I promptly withdrew from the inquiry and committed to nothing.

That should have been it. But oh no….

This afternoon I’ve received 20 emails from Angie. She’s apparently concerned that I didn’t choose to sign up and wanted to explain why the fees are necessary. OK, I’m fine with Angie wanting to make her pitch. But 20 times? Oh wait, there’s another one coming in …

That’s simply too much….

Fortunately, Angie was kind enough to leave her toll free number. And one of her assistants explained that their IT server is acting up this afternoon. No, I was assured, this was not woman’s vendetta against me deciding against giving her my money. Apparently I’m not alone in seeing my email server filled up with pleas from Angie this afternoon.

I’ll forgive for now… but I do hope it ends soon.
