Hey Gaso, I understand that you might not necessarily be a runner, but shouldn't you at least be galloping?

I ride 30km every morning. ..many a grumpy tale about ****wit drivers including this mornings garbage truck and b double campaigners.
 
I thoroughly dislike song covers, especially by campaigners on YouTube or any other form of social media. I also hate talking on the phone, don't even pick up for my best mates.
 
Since registering the home phone number for the Government recommended Do Not Call Register, the number of crank calls from Phillipines/India and who knows where regarding govt schemes for downlights, solar panels and computer viruses have increased exponentially :mad::thumbsdown:

Try having your business registered on yellow pages and that, **** me all I get is spam calls. I don't answer any numbers that aren't 03 or mobiles.
 
Many many years ago Gaso went to the USA....some 25 years ago.

Gaso has $1000 credit limit.

Has to make an interview time with Bank Manager.

Bank Manager says you have only been working a little while...so 'yeh nah, you cant increase it to $2K.'

Gaso goes to USA with $1000 credit not very happy.

Fast fwd to three days ago. Credit card company calls and asks me if I would like to double my credit limit from $4500 to $9000, over the phone approval.

GAGF.
 
Yeah telegrams are where it's at.

Well, la-di-da. Get a look at Mr. Technology over here.

You haven't lived until you've tasted pigeon spam.

The only way to deal with phone calls you don't want ,is to tell them to hang on while you get the home owner ,then just put the phone down beside you.
They normally hang on for about 2-3 mins then they hang up.
It works...I don't get those calls any more so must have been taken off the database. Plus it makes you feel good that you're wasting their time not yours !

Also if you have little people under 5 years ....put them on for a chat.

Now you've been working a little while +25 years.

Proven that they won't have to write off the debt, and that they'll likely make a decent amount back should you accept the higher limit.

Don't take it though, it's a trap.

I like to keep them on the line as long as possible before hanging up, keep them talking about the finer details "also known as BS" and i don't get many calls anymore. I like to think im doing my part for the community by wasting as much of their time as i can
