   Corporate support means that, inevitably, there will be a parting of   
   ways between the customers’ needs and the company’s business plan.   
      
   The mystery to me is, why do the customers keep complaining about   
   this, while continuing to hand over lots of money to the company that   
   is making them suffer? That’s just rewarding them for their actions,   
   so of course they will do even more of it.
