Orange-the future's not quite so bright

You'd think with the revenue presumably pouring in from their current
(well named and priced) tariffs they'd be rolling in it - apparantly
not!

Controlling costs is standard business practice whether or not revenue
is increasing. They will be rolling in more of it soon. Just hope the
weaker customer service staff get fired - perhaps we could call OCS,
note the names and recommend?

The job losses will happen as a result of the integration of Wanadoo
into Orange, not because of crappy performances. It's simply a matter of
taking out duplication.

Orange sliced, new plan Rat, as in leaving sinking ship ,wonder if
marketing dept is first up for the security and carrier bag treatment.

Kind of clearly illustrated when saw 2 buses following each other,
first one with are you a Panther etc... second one with Vodafone talk
for 60 pay for 3 , difficult not to see the more compelling offer...
