Yeah. Dear Boortz - YOU go ahead and save Paris Hilton ahead of the guy
fixing your roof - and good luck in the rainy season.
(snip story about customer breating a laborer)
An otherwise routine political pamphlet I picked up in 1968 had two things
in it I have lived by since. The first is that everybody does what they do
for a reason: find the reason rather than dismissing the person as (insert
perjorative names). The second was that you never pick on the front-line
clerk, who is caught between the customer and the supervisor. If you have
a complaint, go pick on the guy at the top.
What if the guy at the top is inaccessible to customers, as frex is often
the case when your disagreement is with an employee of a government agency?

You go as high us as you can, usually the local manager. At least to the
supervisor of the first-line supervisor (who again has no power; usually
being charged with keeping the line folks working and behaving but with no
power to punish or reward except thru vocal means (I'm extremely
dissapointed in you .... you screwed up) or Telling Daddy (I'll have to
write you up for this.) ) They don't get no respect neither.
