Have You Failed Yet or Are You Still Rotating?

Survival Strategies in the Service Wasteland

In a radical experiment, Sigrid Faltin has entered the world of artificial telephone dialogues and fully automated services. The truth is that in a brave new consumer world the customer is the craftsman, computer expert and financial specialist. One not only can do everything, one must do everything oneself - at the bank or supermarket, with the train, mail or the internal revenue office. Certainly on the internet. The guide to the bizarre service wasteland. An amusing, critical evaluation – this time by a client.
