Guys:

Thanks for your responses so far,keep them coming.

Please understand I'm not looking for solutions but I was just curious as to how other people felt.

Generally speaking I think people (not all of course) have become unprofessional, inhuman and just plain cold.

I know that I will not make every customer happy, I know I will not get every quote or proposal I submit, etc., etc.

My frustration is that there is no respect towards each other.

Send me an email, call me at 10 pm at night when you know no one is in the office, be up-front, tell me we didn't get the job, tell me you are not interested in working with us anymore. Don't tell me "nothing" or ignore me.

Last year we were involved in a large cabling opportunity for a fortune 100 company here is CT. They were a customer for 8+ years. We did all their work bare none. We dropped on a dime for them, did work in NYC the next day on numerous occasions, etc. They moved to some new space and when it came time to award the job we were nothing more then "another" vendor. Additionally, and worst then that, they never even called us to tell us we did not get the job. We learned about it through a third party. That is just down right crappy. I did call my contact and let him know how I felt.
