Control Freak?
August 11, 2010
Relationships are like business transactions--or at least that's how I prefer mine. I am accustomed to researching the other party, outlining terms--together, discussing rewards and compensation, negotiating everything we can think to include, and even discussing penalties for stepping outside the lines. Rarely do I enter any partnership or collaboration haphazardly.
I did, however, become a member of such an unstructured situation somewhat recently due to circumstances beyond my control, along with "I want it" syndrome. Didn't read the fine print first. Yeah, that blew my mind too. I have been in touch, trying to negotiate something more structured, but that's probably not gonna happen. So on to the next one.
Anyway, I've been ranting this week about the sucky customer service I've been experiencing lately and it made me think about other things in that light. What I realize is though there may be a limited number of options available to me right now for what I'm seeking, research will undoubtedly turn up options I didn't know about, and perhaps I can break my services up and use multiple providers to get what I need. One thing about me is I'm loyal; I will stick with the one who meets most of my needs and is willing to work with me. I would prefer to use one provider for everything, but I realize I have very specific, often high-end tastes which aren't the norm so providers who can satisfy me are scarce. Regardless, I'm the customer, and I need what I need. I try not to be driven so much by what I want. Maybe what I seek doesn't exist yet. Maybe it's in development. I'll just have to wait and see. Guess I must decide between settling for the best option available today, and nothing at all. Sucks to be me.
