Verizon Customer Jailed For Trashing Phone Company Store
<snip>

Can you hear me now? Jason Perala's message got through loud and clear to employees at a Fargo Verizon Wireless store Wednesday.

The Fargo construction worker said he planned only to scream at the employees at the store in West Acres mall.

"Then I just lost it," he said in a phone interview a few hours later, from inside the Cass County Jail.

"I just started grabbing computers and phones and throwing them," he said. "I just destroyed the place."

1. I can relate to having the urge
to do just this. Can you hear me now is the most annoying catch-phrase since I've fallen and I can't get up.

3. I've never dealt with Verizon,
So I can't address his concerns... but I can understand how he might feel. If I ever meet anybody from SBC or MCI, I'm going to piss on their Cheerios.

4. Piss in their coffee pots instead. It's harder to detect. Indeed,
I'll be happy to join you!

MCI sux and they charged me $80 for a collect call I never accepted. x( At least the scandal showed me where it helped go to... x(
