Quoting: TunafishSammiches At least it wasn't at three am this time! Did you get one that said 'Presidential' alert?

That's just what they're called, in the states they have different levels of alert and you can set.your phone to ignore them. Everything in Canada is 'presidential' level for some reason, which is why you get people from Ontario bitching about them coming at three am every time there is an Amber alert. |

Interestingly there's usually some heads up for me, as I work with people that work with all of the providers and they usually have at least a day's notice to respond to Client concerns when the messages come in. Not sure what's up, warm up for Black Friday / Cyber Monday BS possibly? ad ignorantiam - The assumption of a conclusion or fact based primarily on lack of evidence to the contrary. Usually best described by, “absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.” |
