I’ll express disappoint that we didn’t get rain up here but I’d never blame you for it. You can take the thanks for it raining now, though 😉

This is what happens when you automate “support services”. Note that there is no facility for telling them *why* they rated a 2 out of 5. It was because I spent the better part of half an hour trying to figure out how to mark a comment as spam, with their “help”.

Screenshot of a request for feedback form from Square. It asks how their Help page was and gives a choice of 1 to 5, with 1 being worst. If you click a number, they thank you for your feedback but give you no opportunity to comment.
