just today I was thinking about how more and more organisations show signs of systemtaic overload and cluelessness. even if you pay specifically for a service supposed to handle situations and shield you from further complications of specific incidences there is no guarantee they know what they are doing or - and that's one of the core reasons for this class of problems - know what their subcontractors are doing. often those don't even care because they themselves are shielded by other insurances and the responsibilites are passed on endlessly like a hot potato. a similar very recent problem would be the various supply chain issues we are experiencing. nobody seems to have close grip on things anymore. like playing the telephone game we can just hope the message is passed on uncurropted and the answer doesn't get stuck somewhere or also corrupted which might trigger just the next misunderstanding. it's totally nuts.
