He also said that the well-known organization that he uses for his network support can take a week to get back to him. Yikes.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately, we\u2019re all experiencing something similar. Even consumer sales support is getting worse. For example, recently I tried to order a second pair of eyeglass lenses from an online company in New York that I have used in the past&#8211;the last time less than two weeks ago. I put the order in, paid online, and almost immediately received an automated request for my prescription\u2014i.e., the one I had sent them a couple of weeks ago. They will not answer their phone or respond to emails asking them to simply duplicate the last order. Instead, a few hours later I received an automated email that they are going to cancel my order. This was after I mailed my old frames to them for the new lenses to be made and fit.<\/p>\n<p>At Zerowait, we make sure we answer our phones and respond to emails and texts from customers and prospects.
