  @Durmo2010 @TELUSsupport I’ve been on the phone with them for an hour trying to book an appointment to get set up for service. Waited hours for callback that never came. Tried again, waited, then they asked for my DL or SIN. Telus can verify my identity without that information. Not a good start Telus.

  Yes. I watched a client, who became a friend and then helped us start our business in 2003, get decimated by TELUS when they started cutting off the residuals to privately owned stores. They finally just gave up because the "new" make the sale structure with no residuals was insane. I'm sorry to say it, but I _KNEW_ that's where the BPOS then O365 then M365 then Azure residual/remuneration structures would go. All of those big signing bonuses in the beginning are gone now. Large hosting houses were decimated selling M365 a shell of their former selves good people out the door. Why? The answer is obvious, and known by us, but for over libations. ;-) This particular Cloud First IT Company is doing what any company like it needs to do to survive: SELL SELL SELL! Most Cloud First customers, not clients, have no interest in the managed support fees. They'll happily open a ticket and strangle the neck of the Cloud First IT Company when M365, AWS, G00g Cloud, or other goes offline. What an ugly position to be in. :-( Thanks, but no thanks.

  Hey @TELUS I can't log into my account. Your AI option has the IQ of a worm; I can't use chat because I'd have to be logged in, and of course you don't employ humans to service your cash cow customers soooo... Should I contact the CRTC to help me?

  Quite possibly true, I was raised with discipline, and many today are not. What I got as a kid, people today would call abuse, it wasn't. I started a business selling Internet access in 1995 and had 13 employees, this in North Central BC. We were an ISP until Telus monopolized the industry with the backing of the Federal and Provincial governments and bankrupted every small ISP in two provinces to the cheers of some of my customers. Ignorance is bliss, and yes, I'm still pissed off about it. Anyway, I had a few younger people work for me, some were good, many were not. It is a challenge to find good ones, but I can't help but look at places like Indeed and other online job markets and see how flawed they are. The hiring process is **** now, in the old days you hired your neighbors kid or someone you knew and trusted from Church made a recommendation. Grabbing a resume full of lies and flowery language is useless. Yeah, some kids are trouble but not all, but the way we find them has changed dramatically. In addition, when I got that job at 15, if I didn't pull my weight every minute of my shift, I was gone, instantly. Best advice I ever got was "fire fast and hire slow".

  @cremieuxrecueil I work in group retirement savings. When I was a phone agent most of my calls was about withdrawals. 90% of official complaints was 50 or 60yos with 50k to 80k ( CAD so worthless) trying to scam their way out of a locked in plan. For total garbage like I wanna renovate a bedroom. We handle Telus which is the biggest Télécom, lots of cash. These fking retards making 120k+ get laid off and they call the next day to unlock their locked in plan for financial difficulty. If they manage, the gov will totally rek them because u need projected 30k or less for 12 months. Even if these guys don't work the rest of the year, they're already over. Or we had constantly people retiring early and they'd take out 5k a day to pay only 10% tax. Some up to 100k. Like Jesus retard you're gonna have to pay 40k at tax season. I handle the security now and I see these types every single day.

  @alleria_eh Bloody idiot. Here is a PARTIAL list. You are using most. X itself Your Canadian internet provider, such as Telus, Rogers, Bell, or Shaw, routes traffic over an internet backbone that uses equipment, software, and services from numerous U.S companies Apple (if using an iPhone or iPad). Google (if using Android, Chrome, Gmail, or Google DNS). Qualcomm (chips in many Android phones). Intel or AMD (if using a PC). Microsoft (Windows, Edge, Outlook, OneDrive, etc.). NVIDIA (graphics hardware in many computers). Visa or Mastercard (if paying for X Premium or making online purchases). PayPal (if used for payments). Cloudflare (many websites, including services connected to X, rely on it). Amazon Web Services (AWS) (many internet services depend on AWS, even if X itself does not). Oracle (enterprise software and cloud infrastructure used across the internet). Cisco (networking equipment carrying internet traffic). Meta (if they also use Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, or Threads). Adobe (if editing photos before posting). OpenAI (if using ChatGPT to write posts). GoDaddy (if they own a website linked from their X profile). Verisign (operates key internet infrastructure for .com and .net domains).

  @jenglishman @TELUS 2/2 One by one the sole Telus employee told them he couldn't help and pointed to a phone number on the wall for them to call. The store was filled with these ladies now on their phones trying to get help to no avail. Absolutely useless!!!

  $AMPG's CEO just confirmed $AMZN as a customer, alongside CPI and Viasat. Not only that. He mentions $SPCX too. Where? An on-camera interview with Maxim Group's senior analyst. Almost nobody has watched it yet. He's asked where AmpliTech sits in satellite. And the CEO answers with a customer list, verbatim: "Companies like Viasat, Amazon, CPI, all those guys are our customers". Ground stations. Per him, pretty much all the high-end ones. Amazon's logo has been on AMPG's customer wall for a while. What's new is the CEO binding it to the ground-station segment, out loud, on the record. THE MECHANISM almost everyone misses The next 30 seconds of the same answer: "In the past, this was not absolutely necessary". Analog signals forgave mediocre front ends. TV got through anyway. Now everything is digital data. And bits don't forgive: every dB of noise is throughput you lose. Translation: AmpliTech didn't chase this market. The market's physics drifted toward the one thing this company has built since day one: the lowest-noise front end. THE MULTIPLIER A ground station isn't one antenna. It's an antenna farm: arrays of dishes, because arrays buy you range. Now run the CEO's own market math: LEOs launching, MEOs launching, SpaceX launching, Amazon launching. Every constellation needs gateways. Every gateway is a farm. Every dish in every farm needs a front end that lives or dies on noise figure. Constellations compete with each other. Farms just multiply. That's the pick-and-shovel position: you don't need to pick the winning constellation. You sell to every farm. And one precision that matters: SpaceX is named as a market force launching satellites. It is NOT on the customer list. The list is Viasat, Amazon and CPI. THE PEDIGREE This isn't a new lane for $AMPG. It's the founding one. Low-noise amplifiers are the company's original DNA, designed and built in the US for decades. Quantum is the lottery ticket. Satcom is the day job. And the day job just caught a demand supercycle. On terminals: high-speed Ku and Ka band, the CEO's words, "we're in the thick of that". THE PATTERN Same interview: Telus, named. IBM and Google, named. Now Viasat, Amazon and CPI, placed in context. The anonymous era of this story is ending one name at a time. "Lowest noise figures in the industry" is the company's claim, on the record. SpaceX: named as a market, not as a customer. Satcom rides on constellation capex continuing. Cycles wobble. The front end is the toll booth of the ground segment. AMPG was collecting at that booth before the road got crowded. Now count the cars. Not financial advice. I'm long $AMPG. DYOR. 📡
