If it was your goal to antagonize me against your position and company, you did a great job. Also: When I text you back, &#8220;do not txt me,&#8221; it does NOT mean that you should then call me [...]]]></description>

I got in line promptly at 10am, and got the initial queue position of 2008. SWEET, I thought.
