So this just happened. Thanks to my boy Gabe at GoGo inflight wireless….

Chat Transcript01/18/2013 07:49 PM

Welcome to Gogo. My name is Gabe.
David Gunn: Hey gabe, how are you?
Gabe: Hello David, I am good. How can I help you tonight?
David Gunn: is there any chance you could provide a short term access code? I was unable to reach my wife before takeoff, and I wanted to shoot her an email letting her know I’d be later than expected
David Gunn: i promise to sing your praises on twitter if you help
Gabe: Hmm if you give me your wife’s email address I will send her an email for you.
Gabe: Just give me the email address and the message.
David Gunn: that’s sweet, but I’d really like to send it myself. It’d be weird if gabe from gogo said “I’ll be home soon pookie”
David Gunn: I’d also probably end up on Facebook. Lets be honest.
David Gunn: But I can rave about you there too…..
David Gunn: Think about it, you could be Facebook famous….
Gabe: Well David, I can’t really get you anything now =(.. I can not accept positive feedback for free service. As a company we could get in a lot of trouble for “bribing for positive feedback”
David Gunn: Good point. That would be unethical.
David Gunn: What if we just kept it our secret?
David Gunn: did I mention she’s pregnant?
David Gunn: :)
David Gunn: though I can’t promise you naming rights, that’d be weird
Gabe: Well David, tell me more about your trip.
Gabe: Where were you traveling from and to*
David Gunn: Washington, D.C., from Austin. Been gone all week. Work trip. Rained the whole time, and I lost my umbrella
David Gunn: but work was great.
Gabe: Hmm, what do you do for your job?
David Gunn: software sales, for nonprofits. We help them raise money, organize and engage their supporters.
Gabe: Can you give me the name of the company you work for?
Gabe: Hate to be like this, but it kinda sounds fishy you know :P
David Gunn: Sure. It’s called salsa labs, www.salsalabs.com, they’re awesome.
Gabe: Thank you :) Just a moment longer
David Gunn: You a union man? We work with the afl-cio
David Gunn: :)
Gabe: Care to make a deal David?
David Gunn: hit me
Gabe: Alright, I will get you a code to get connected tonight, but have you ever heard of the idea “paying it forward”
David Gunn: yup. Love it.
Gabe: Alright! I will get you a code to get connected, and I want you to find a way to pay it forward preferably in the next 24 hours.

Because I can not ask you to report back to me on how it goes. We will have to go with the honor system deal?
David Gunn: Deal
Gabe: Please use: 24yhr91144446

After signing in to your account and selecting your pass, enter the code at checkout to apply your discount.
David Gunn: you rock gabe. We’re gonna change the world, you and I.
Gabe: =) Enjoy your flight, and make sure you let your wife know whats up.
David Gunn: Will do.
Gabe: Thank you for choosing Gogo. Fly classy.
David Gunn: Have a great night. And I always do. ;)
‘David Gunn’ disconnected (‘Concluded by Agent’).
