Yeah its a gong show, they're dealing with huge numbers, but people who don't have access to Internet or computers, and people that only have things like hard copies of their REO are trying to get help over the phone.
When the government shut down the offices because employees were calling in sick they basically created a system over load.
I tried to help a buddy fill out his EI application on line yesterday and it was a 20 minute per page load time with lots of crashes.
