I say it to every client that I work with — don’t make promises you can’t keep. Better yet, if you want to say that you provide great a product and service and you could really care less about your customers — please don’t bother.

I think this idiot subscribes to the “any news, good or bad, is good for PR and SEO”. Not when you screw the pooch like this though. Impossible to win trust back after exchanges like this.
