Having an organisational moment

I have lodged my tax return, called the electrician, and am on the phone to Vodafone to sort out why they are trying to charge me approx $1 million for internet when it is supposed to be included. They have me on hold.

And can we talk about how fucking annoying their stupid voice recognition system is. I do not want to hear some disembodied voice tell me shit about plans. I want to talk to a hooman.

Only the hooman turns out to be as useless as the disembodied voice. Sigh.

I HATE the voice recognition systems. They are idiotic. I can always tell when my husband is talking to one because of the severe irritation in his voice. It makes me laugh! It's funny when he's talking to them. But not when I am. :-)

I hate them. HATE. I think they are secretly having a laff, imagining us all sitting at our desks mouthing inanities to a robot. I refuse to talk to them, and will sit in stubborn, teenage-like silence until they TRANSFER ME TO AN ACTUAL PERSON WHO IS A PERSON GODDAMN IT.
