241701 - Talked to Dobie.

241703 - Explained background buying computer on 120205 0907. ref SDS 15 Q48O,

241709 - Dobie asked for an explanation of issues to resolve in this case?

241713 - HP yesterday on 120208 0627, ref SDS 16 KT9F, and citing the record on
241714 - 120205 0907. ref SDS 15 Q48O
241716 - ..
241717 - Dobie said HP requires customers to verbally present complicated
241718 - issues by talking on the telephone. The case manager writes down what
241719 - the customer says in HP's computer, and then uses that record for case
241720 - management. Dobie advised that his boss won't let HP customer service
241721 - agents use efficiencies of electronic correspondence nor rely on links
241722 - to the Internet that expedite work saving time and money.
241724 - ..
241725 - Dobie's report of resistance at HP against relying on the record
241726 - aligns with prior work placing an order at HP on 120202 0932.
241727 - ref SDS 13 S161 More recently, this happened again just yesterday
241728 - when HP case management said company policy prevents reading
241729 - correspondence from customers, reported on 120208 0627. ref SDS 16
241730 - I56I
241732 - ..
241733 - We reviewed the record showing HP relies heavily on electronic
241734 - correspondece with many links for customers to access on the Internet,
241735 - shown on 120205 0907. ref SDS 15 YP3K HP's work practice demonstrates
241736 - expectation that customers routinely access links and thereby accept
241737 - information, which HP holds essential to the sales agreement, e.g.,
241738 - product specification, listed on 120205 0907. ref SDS 15 G85K, product
241739 - prices, also on 120205, ref SDS 15 W35H, and warranty on 120205.
241740 - ref SDS 15 H45G
241742 - ..
241743 - This record shows HP has total confidence in saving time and money
241744 - with efficient communications, i.e., fast and accurate, using
241745 - electronic correspondence and links the Internet.
241747 - ..
241748 - Dobie suggested sending fax.
241750 - ..
241751 - We reviewed the record showing fax is slow, cumbersome, and causes
241752 - endless mistakes because it does not provide efficient electronic
241753 - access to the record of related information essential to transact case
241754 - management.
241756 - ..
241757 - Advised have to end the call to attend an offsite meeting at 1130.
241759 - ..
241760 - Asked Dobie to get the letter submitted to HP yesterday, and be
241761 - prepared to discuss the 7 issues presented, per above. ref SDS 0 T55I
241762 -
241763 - [On 120210 1416 Dobie reported spending 4 hours correcting
241764 - mistakes talking about complex problems, ref SDS 17 W64G;
241765 - Dobie later asked his boss for permission to work
241766 - intelligently selling HP products by collaborating with
241767 - customers based on efficiencies of electronic
241768 - correspondence; however, the bos "just doesn't get it."
241769 - ref SDS 17 J43F
241771 - ..
241772 - Dobie said he will call back this afternoon OA 1400.
