I find this quite funny as I checked in a guy a few weeks ago whose travel agent did not set up an electronic visa (for Australia) in his booking - as he stated/expected to have been done by her. He was past retirement age but told me he was on a business trip to Melbourne. I attempted with the Help Desk to do an e-visa in SHARES but after several phone calls and long holds, the Help Desk could not get it done. I suggested he call his travel agent and she quickly did it.
In the interim, I see in his profile and casually mentioned to him that I see he works (or consults?) for HP. He said yes and knew quite well that SHARES was a product of HP, at which time he rolled his eyes and offered alot of sympathy about the SHARES transition. He even admitted that many years prior he was involved with training at Continental for SHARES.
Interesting discussion, very nice guy.
