Symposium Can Eat A Dick

I spent literally HOURS today trying to get Nortel's Symposium Web Client Call Center program to save some fucking numbers as raw data... and it won't do it. I got so pissed I wrote a letter I will never send:

Dear Nortel,
Hey you fuckers, did it ever occur to you that not everyone wants to look at the Crosstab Skillset Performance report the way it defaults to print? Well, I don't, and I'm mad as hell about it. I just want the data. The raw numbers. Did it ever occur to you that the reports you build into your shitty ass switch emulator aren't enough for some people? Just because you want your reports to print out on fifteen thousand pages, doesn't mean that I want them to. I actually need to take that information and manipulate in a way not of your choosing. If I have to deformat your reports in order to merge them into my other excel reports, I'll never have time to do anything else you bumfuckers. I have a life outside this office, in case you weren't informed. Give me more control over the way this dog fart of a program reports or I'm going to quit my job. Not that you'd care, you evil money grubbing corporate colossus. Fuck your hardware products, fuck your software, fuck your mothers and fuck you.

Your Friend,
