So my apologies for venting my rage at no one in particular on this forum instead of at the people who caused it or one of my coworkers; I now clearly see that it was a mistake.
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;
You can vent your rage without making up stories.
&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;

Probably. But without the made up stories, it&amp;#39;s a lot less amusing for this forum. Like, who hasn&amp;#39;t slammed down the phone and yelled exactly that sort of thing at the idiot who was on the other end.</description></item><item><title>Re: WTF Hosting</title><link>http://forums.thedailywtf.com/forums/thread/309065.aspx</link><pubDate>Thu, 15 Nov 2012 23:58:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">24b8a869-dfac-465a-8bea-5fc51108d524:309065</guid><dc:creator>Mcoder</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>http://forums.thedailywtf.com/forums/thread/309065.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>http://forums.thedailywtf.com/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=18&amp;PostID=309065</wfw:commentRss><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="/Themes/leanandgreen/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;this_code_sucks:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;My company pays a large sum&amp;nbsp;of money for hosting...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Yeah, I see.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;img src="/Themes/leanandgreen/images/icon-quote.gif"&gt; &lt;strong&gt;this_code_sucks:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;...and yet this issue is still not fixed.&amp;nbsp;Additionally, before I begged to be sent to teir two; they gave me the run around several more&amp;nbsp;times, tried to get me to delete my servers, and resorted to openly mocking me.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ok.
