Except that Oracle doesn't say sorry and doesn't appear to have any human connection at all, they don't even fake it.

Funny you mention Oracle: Slack’s former SVP of NA sales just moved on to a CRO job elsewhere a few weeks back. Their early career? Sales @ Oracle! Really, can’t make this stuff up. I went looking to see who Slack’s CRO was given it was their product C-level here commenting instead of someone more relevant in charge of the operational area where this happened. I did not at all fall over in shock to see that the person who shepherded Slack’s sales tactics to a culture where this is even a possibility was previously associated with Oracle sales.
