FFS TOTSCO.

So I have to find a matching service for a switch.

I construct the SQL query and pile on the conditions - installed and not ceased and not in the middle of a port, and the right account number and line number and so on.

I get either zero, one, or more results. If I get one, I respond with matching details.

But it not, I have to send a failure. Let's check the failure codes.

FFS, they have them all!

  • Multiple customers but no match on surname
  • Multiple customers with that surname!
  • Account found but historic
  • Account found but not the service ID
  • Multiple services at same address

FFS, I cannot just do a query!

I have to do a wide query to find all the partial matches to make the fucking error code.

Well, maybe, maybe I do, is it a law, a GC, or can I just say "no match" or "multiple match" somehow?

I have no clue.

What I may do is the one query, and on fail, do a few sloppy queries just to work out error codes.

E.g. just check the account number, etc.

Maybe do some of the error codes if I can.

Scoop: I obtained the contract Samsung requires independent shops to sign to buy phone repair parts from them.

It requires:

  • "Daily" dumps of customer data
  • The "immediate destruction" of any phones a shop comes across that has third-party parts

@f4grx @jasonkoebler destruction would be a contract to cause criminal damage, so rather unenforceable and otherwise costly, surely?

There are people that get triggered when someone posts a screenshot of a phone with like 2% battery…

This is a similar sort of thing someone just sent me!
