Nobody Works at NSTAR

[plumtreeblossom]

For real. It's an entirely automated machine with no actual employees. If you want to pay your bill over the phone but want to do so via a live human employee, you can't. There aren't any, just robots who will offer you The Following 7 Options over and over until you finally are broken by the NSTAR Novena and you choose an option.

I was a bit late this month (same as it ever was) so I didn't get to use my preferred method of paying utility bills, which is to tie my check to a brick and huck it through the plate glass lobby window of the corporate main office. It's a bit more subtle than writing "Die, Fascist Vampires!" in the memo blank on your check, I think.

Goodbye, my darling money. You were only mine for such a brief time. I'll miss you.

The folks at NSTAR are very nice, actually. But my experience is with corporate, not accounting.
