Cable and Wireless - 'all our agents are busy, please continue to hold'

I applied to Cable and Wireless Jamaica(CWJ) for my telephone line to be transferred to my new residence some seven(7) weeks ago . They finally came and installed the phone line but there was no dial tone. The technician advised, that in two(2) days the line would be up and running, and everything would be ok.

When this did not happen, the customer care department was contacted, and after some waiting and messages of "all our agents are (still)busy, please continue to hold", we were informed that there was a line fault and a problem with some box on the street and that they would try and sort it out.

On Friday, August 25, I got a strange call from a CWJ agent asking me how my DSL service was performing. I nearly broke out in laughter, but contained myself and advised the agent that I have no telephone line service, much less DSL service at this time. He promised to send a technican to look at this problem but up to this point we have not seen or heard from them. Well not quite true, they called to ask my wife why she had discontinued her telephone & ADSL service in Montego Bay.

Any effort to get any information since, has been met by, "all our agents are busy, please continue to hold".

Cable and Wireless Jamaica currently have some ads running in the daily newspapers and everytime I see one, I am tempted to get angry. However, I am do not see why I should allow CWJ cause me stress.

In the meanwhile, I will I relax and now continue to listen to,"all our agents are busy, please continue to hold".

nb: While I was writing this blog, I was listening to,""all our agents are busy, please continue to hold".

That outrageous cartoon : Prime Minister of Jamaica, Portia Simpson-Miller.

I have a copy of the much talked about cartoon that was subsequently even removed from the Jamaica Gleaner Company's website. Actually I am prepared to buy a copy of it. In my personal capacity, my first impressions was that the Gleaner might have gone too far but on second reflection, I think not. It is often said that a picture is worth a thousand words. In this case I will try to present a few words on a few events that inspired the cartoon and what it is saying. The first event is a speech the Prime Minister made while she was Minister of Tourism in reply to accusations made by Mr. Audley Shaw. In that speech she made the a comment something to the effect 'mine you draw my tongue'. The other incident it captures is the idea of the Prime Minister having to walk(not sure if it was barefoot) to the Half Moon hotel after being caught up in the height of the Jazz Festival induced traffic nightmare on the Rose Hall Main Road in Montego Bay Jamaica. The other thing captured
