I’m not sure this gentleman solved any of his problems when he walked into the cell phone store and began hurling eggs and epithets, but I hope he feels a little better. Maybe Telus can let us know how he’s doing. On Saturday, employees at Quinsam Communications in Campbell River, Vancouver Island were left stunned …
