Clean up

I know that I have blogged a bunch about the Tornado, but that is what is happening in my life and the lives of many others.  I went out and took pictures today of some of the area that I was helping to clean up.  I thought you might be interested in just what little I took a picture of.  These pictures are from just one small road that got hit.  This is mostly tree damage that you can see from the pictures.  A lot more houses were damaged in Gaslight Park and Nolen trailer court.  I’ll post more as I get them while  I am helping clean up after the destruction.               These pictures were taken 5 days after the tornado hit.  A lot of the roads were covered with power lines and trees so they have mostly just cleared the roads.  As you can see lots of trees are down and have been cut up and placed by the side of the road.   We’ve been going in and trying to help clean up the trees from peoples yards.  

Off the subject: AT&T

After I read the articles from the assigned reading I realized that blogging is one way to inform people of your problems with a company.  This will help me to see if it only happens to me or if lots of other people have this happen to them.  So, I wanted to see if anyone else is dissatisfied with AT&T.  I have been on the phone several hours trying to get my bill lowered and every time I call either the bill comes in wrong or higher than they said.  Not to mention that when AT&T purchased Bellsouth they started billing me for a service I received free with Bellsouth without notifying me(that was another two hour call in which I ended paying anyways for the service I didn’t use).  Is there a monopoly here that is making it hard to get good service.  Does AT&T not have to worry about satisfying their customers because they own all the competition or does someone out there have a different company I can switch to?  I don’t need long distance because I can use my cell for that, but of course I am Cingular which is also owned by AT&T.  I need the DSL because of class.  So any options I am willing to change.  My cell phone plan I think is up in March so anything goes.  Also, anyone have a story where AT&T are not using customer satisfaction to drive their service to let me know I’m not alone.  THanks
