Cogeco:
they cut our internet, i got a warning on a friday a couple weeks ago that we just broke our 60 gb quota for the month and to back off the downloading, fair enough, come sunday night when i get back we have a 24 hour ban, aparently we are at 100 gb now... somehow 40 gb were downloaded in my absence of one week. Then in a few days entirely banned, so i've been without the internet for a week, REALLY pissed me off since i have to do all of my homework/coop/job interviews/group coordination online. I spent the week running back and forth between sheridan and my place a good 2 dozen times. SUCH A PAIN. Got the internet back this morning, after calling and bitching because it wasn't up yet.
Telus:
So I made a payment online for telus for september, i have the confirmation number, i did it through my credit card. I was wondering why no one had called me the last couple days, but i figured i was just mildly unpopular, i went to call cogeco last night to ask why my net wasn't up yet, my phone does not work,
"hello we are redirecting your call to telus"
"for english press 1"
"to make a payment press 2"
"to use our automated service press 1"
"enter your credit card number and expiry"
"we will now connect you to a representative to tell you about new telus service"
"sorry, our offices are closed right now, your transaction could not be complete"
GAHHHH!!!!!!!!! so i had to deal with that in the morning, and finally got a hold of cogeco
Rogers:
After paying them off, everything, they called threatening negative credit ratings and what not if i did not pay immediately, i asked what i owed them for, i paid up to sept 15th, and cut my service on the 6th, but aparently i need to pay the sept=oct 15th pay period as well... i am entirely getting ripped off AND overbilled (115 bucks! on a 60 dollar plan!) but i don't have time to even deal with it at the moment, they are getting one angry email though.
Dear Penthouse:
I was walking to school today and heard some horn honking at the light, some commotion didn't really pay attention until, "fine tall dark and handsome, break my fucking heart and walk away!" i turned around to find that the car was honking at ME. I laugh and continue walking to the school, they turn in, and pull up beside me. 4 rather attractive girls in a blue tercel roll down the windows, inform me that two of them just recently got dumped, and are going to their house for an afternoon of drinking and a pillow fight, i was asked if i wanted to come along. At first I laughed but realized they were serious. At this point we were actually holding up one lane of traffic, which was causing some honking. I informed them that i was "very happily devoted to only judging pillow fights with my girlfriend" but i told them to come to the caf and grab lunch with me, they did. very nice girls, the two of them were so animalistic in their hunting down guys, it was hilarious, they just wanted to meet new guys and were randomly introducing themselves all during lunch, it was good times, i parted ways and went to my phone interview.
Job Interviews: I have a gift, i've always wanted super powers, turns out i am a master at resumes and job interviews. Not as cool as flying. however, i have been applying to jobs at coop, everyone else is getting an interview here and there... i had 16 interview requests.... hooooly crap, i took a couple, the higher paying ones :) I went to my interview for a telecom worker at a big server basement, i went in, introduced myself, talked, told them all about me, by the end of the interview i was asking THEM all the questions, they gave me a salary option, on instinct i just retorted, "you can do better, i am a one man IT army with great management skills" lofl.... don't know WHERE it came from, but they said "you know what, you're right" and made me a better offer!!!!!!! the big job i want, at stryker, pays well, good experience, at clappisons corners, i did the phone interview, did so well they want me to show up asap tomorrow to talk to the system admins.
