In all seriousness, I don’t have the courage to tell someone what to do like I just don’t even at work I can’t even convince someone to sign up to our loyalty card. I HAVE SOCIAL ANXIETY

Lajsksksndnsne like I brought a perfume from work the other day and the lady forgot to put my staff discount and I was too scared to ask her to re do it so I went up to my floor to get my friend to do it.

They obviously couldn't find an appropriate football image of Carey from his 244 games he played for the club, so they took an image from one of his 28 games from the Crows.

NTTAWWT.



A weirdo where I used to work many years ago would have upset a lot of train travellers over the years. His guts would hang over his pants and his arse crack was on constant display as his t shirts were a few sizes too small. One of the blokes from work did a welfare visit to his place and found he had no furniture apart from a cable drum as a table and a sleeping bag with a pillow.

Girls who lived next door to me went interstate so we chipped in and bought their couch, bed, tv, table, chairs etc. and we hired a truck to deliver the stuff to his place.

The down side of that was when he would get on my train and talk to me. I know that sounds a bit nasty but it was a pretty bad look as the guts and arse crack drew some stunned looks from other passengers. It was pretty bad.

Used their garbage online text service to change account around 3months ago to save $60 a month give or take.

Get order number and all sweet.

2 Bill cycles and nothing has changed

Now the dreaded on hold voice call that goes for 4 hours today

Nothing takes two bill cycles to happen so it is clear that whoever created the order stuffed it up although they will lie and blame some other reason. On the other hand the systems are so bad that everyday functions don't work. They are cutting over new systems but when I had a fault a couple of weeks ago I managed to get one of the onshore people onto a call who told me that the new systems are worse than those being replaced (and that is saying something).

The NBN part of the fault we had is fixed although it was actually a legacy of when the street network was a Telstra asset. The 4g failover of my service, which has never worked remains unfixed ( reported multiple times) and they randomly send messages about my service to a mobile number that has been disassociated from the account multiple times (I gave my old number to my son several years back).

Telstra are an abomination.

So they dont do phone chats on weekends anymore.

Back to messages. The messages from December are all there and they "can see the changes but due to a technical error" blah blah blah.

So despite having the Order Number, the previous conversation, NOW the person wants me to go through the whole Order system again.

Similar to you with tech issues, Outlook via BigPond hasn't worked for 2 years. They cant fix it and it relates to Outlook not recognizing the BigPond password.

Truly the worst company

Now that you mention it I also have the outlook password issue. It was never right as far as I know.

Totally agree with your opinion of them.

personally i dont think its a good idea using a vendor supplied mail service, makes it a pain if or when you change providers, i get buy with 2 hotmail and 2 gmail accounts,

I totally agree with that. Some initial setup info was sent by default to the bigpong account as far as I recall but I have never used it anyway.

I have had a Hotmail account since day one when Microsoft set it up and similarly with Gmail.

I probably still even have a yahoo account.

Remember when people had ridiculous hotmail addresses like, sexyranga69 or pantherisahottie.

Hmmm - maybe mine does as well. I set it up to go to Viet Nam in 1996. I think I managed to send just one or two emails though when I got there as the very few Internet cafe's that existed used dial-up and it was unreliable. I found a place to stay in Hanoi called the Love Cafe that had an internet service that worked although I spent some time fixing things up for the owner. I got a few free T-Shirts with Love Cafe printed on them - and yes... most people thought it was the Hanoi equivalent of Tender Touch (which it wasn't). Although my wife and I did stay in such an establishment in Bangkok one night but that is a different story.
