Turkey and Data Security:

Critical Customer Care:
Despite the disruption, Nolan implies that customer needs were kept at the forefront, making sure everyone could continue to discuss business over pumpkin pie without a care.
Hot Take
Well folks, give an extra piece of pumpkin pie to FNF! While we were in Tryptophan comas, they were ensuring our real estate business wasn’t crashing faster than a four-year-old hopped up on too much Thanksgiving sugar. It’s like a Bruce Willis movie, but instead of leaping from explosions, it’s data and customer service – equally hair-raising, I assure you. They managed to contain the fallout faster than you can say “leftover turkey sandwich.” So, let us take a moment to toast FNF for being the unbeknownst host at this year’s Thanksgiving techno-drama. Guess this year we’re not just thankful for extra gravy and naps, but also for cybersecurity teams that continue to chop the wood and carry the water (or should I say, block the viruses and keep the servers running?). Here’s to you FNF, for adding a sprinkle of excitement to our holiday, and keeping real estate rolling smooth like our beloved cranberry sauce. Buckle in folks, with technology on the rise we can expect a future as unpredictable as your aunt’s mystery casserole.
