My note to the subscription department of the Washington Post

As a Sunday subscriber, apparently I was eligible for free weekday papers starting back in September. I have not been getting these papers, but since I wasn't paying for them, I haven't felt the need to complain.

However, I wasn't favorably impressed when I got a sales call today asking me if I wanted to extend this nonexistant daily service...not only because I haven't been getting it, but because the call came in the middle of the Redskins game. And when I cut the sales pitch off by saying "No, and I'm trying to watch the football game," the operator said "And you're losing, aren't you?"

I'm sure whomever you contract with to make the sales calls isn't local, but I just thought I'd let you know that not only did that operator not get you another sale, I'd cancel my Sunday subscription if I didn't want the coupons.
