So it's been pointed out to me that I haven't posted for a while... turns out it's been a month.
Initially I thought that it sucked, but on the other hand, nice to know I'm missed eh?
Basically I have been without internet for a month. I got banned for use of peer-to-peer software. The blocking page when I tried to connect suggested that I email the service desk to arrange a meeting to get re-connected... bigger slice of irony anyone? So I did this from my phone. It got bounced the next day. I emailed again, this time case-sensitive. It got bounced again. So after about a week of lack of internet and lack of sensible resolution system in place I walked to the office where they deal with these things to talk to a 'human'.
After cueing for what must have been the best part of my natural born life, I was told that there was nothing that they could do, and that I needed to have a 'meeting' to discuss what I had done... "So can I have a meeting?" I replied... to which the translated response was "But that would be logic, especially as the office of the person who arranges these meetings is in the next office over. Instead we will make you wait for us to call you to arrange this, procrastinate for ages, and thus prove out inadequacy, in a way similar to whipping out a one-inch-wonder."
Two weeks passed, and still nothing...
I went in again and complained, stressed how in know uncertain terms "THIS IS TAKING THE PISS"... I meant, not only had my life crumbled around me without the internet, but I actually had coursework to do that required me having a constant internet connection while testing it, and submission via upload. I was then told that the best way was to call them... tomorrow... they person in the next room only works half days...
Alas I couldn't, I had coursework to do on various borrowed laptops with working internet.
Finally, on Friday, after about a month of no internet... I was reconnected, they phoned me up, and wanted me to say nothing more than that I know what I did was wrong, and I won't do it again, then they re-connected me... why tf could they not have done that in the first place... I would have happily spun then that lie ages ago had I known it's effectiveness...
So hopefully blogging abit more now eh...
Big love xxx
PS happy now GeeGee? ;P
