Increasingly enfuriated rant

If it's not bad enough I feel crap about myself and my life anyway, RL is out to get me.
  • Our water main is leaking again. The plumber is coming this afternoon and maybe we'll need a whole new one since this is the second time.
  • I have to get someone in to replace all the window rubbers. Yeah, that's what they call them.
  • I also need to get someone to ( Read more... )

Yes, I hate courier delivery. They stuff up, and then I have to catch a taxi to ruddy Ringwood to pick up the parcel from the depot. Ordinary post is much more reliable!

Their depot used to be not far, but now it's way out in East Tamaki. Besides, I object to have to collect something I was forced to pay a premium to have delivered. I was prepared to go to a post shop, but they couldn't even get that right.

They've delivered it now anyway, only a week late.

*Hugs* I'm sorry. I hate it when the bastards jerk you around like that. I've had it happen way too many times too and it's ridiculous. Having to wait around and not being able to do anything and not knowing when the fuck you can relax again is just infuriating. *hugs*

I know! Then the plumber came just after my shower. At least I was dressed; I was just drying my hair. I suppose I can go out now but I don't feel like it. That means of course that I should do some cleaning. Sigh.

The last I saw of Ashley, she was checking out the leak herself. :-)

Oh, man. Well, I hope the plumbing problems get dealt with OK, at least. *crosses fingers for you*

It looks like we need a new main, and that's going to be a major operation with all the rocks and trees. :-(

Oh dear, that sucks a lot. I hope it all gets sorted out soon.

The courier has been now--a week late--but the main's going to have to be replaced since there are at least two leaks and we already fixed one. I haven't the heart to tackle the other stuff yet.
