Updated 1199A on 11/14/2006
call from DHS on 12/13/2006 asking why we had not answered the questions, answer was we never got them. On 12/12/2006 I had e-mailed the help desk asking if the questions had been sent, I was told the questions would be e-mailed if we were to receive them. I thought they might be more help. But anyway were one step closer.

Helpdesk handles tech support only. FPSs are the ones that handle application stuff like whether or not the questions got sent.

Could be worse, my company changed the name from Helpcenter to Customer Care Center. Because they can't help so they didn't want to confuse the customers, but at least they care...

Got that resume dusted off Brian?? You're getting out there a bit!! On the plus side--i read an article this morning that ex-employees are being looked on with favor to return.

earl (just razzin' you--please take no offense)

None taken. I don't work in that department. I'd pity Tech Services more, they're the ones that have to keep up with the revolving door of employees down there.

Plus I'd get fired in no time, people calling up asking where the eyes are on the printer so they can show it to the CPU since it keeps saying it can't "see" the printer... Many slaps would be delivered through the phone.

John made nice with some of the Congressfolks.

They get the list of Friday announcements on Wednesday. Some of them share.

6 weeks????

So are we looking at about 6 weeks between 10 q's and award? Mine came on 11/22 and every Friday I watch the awards roll out. Anybody else get 1199 or questions Thanksgiving week?

[BC79er_OLDDELETE]

One client with 1199A on the 22nd announced today. Depending on what you went for it may take a little longer. They were PPE only, sometimes projects with more than one line item get more scrutiny. Sometimes, not a rule of thumb. I know you don't want to hear hurry up and wait, but that's about the size of things.

You can PM me here on the forums or PM me on CentralPAFire's boards with the SLY screename. I hate to post my e-mail on the boards to avoid junkmail.

If you don't have any luck, post back here and I'll find you somehow. I'd love to help you out in anyway I can.
