"down in a hole"

today when i came to work i was feeling fine, Kent (a Swedish pop band) was gonna play live today and i was thinking of going there.

first call:

"-hi, i was wondering if it possible to deliver a car in great britain?"

"-witch day?"

"-this sunday, the 15:th"

"-well, that can be a bit of a hassle since we need to make the car reservation on request"

"-ok, and how long does that take before they answer it?"

"-up to three work days"

"-can´t you call them now?"

"-i can try, but i can´t promise anything"

....

and so i tried to call the station, no answer, and and while i was trying to reach them other people called and asked about deliverys and meet late arrivals at other impossible (well nearly) stations...

but after ALOT of work i finally got everything sorted (unusual)...

until that guy called me from Italy...*sigh*

i´m not gonna go through the whole thing but just so you´ll get the idea:

he had rented a car in Italy and then drove a couple of miles (10+ actually) to the place he wanted to go and stopped there cause the car had some really wierd noices from the clutch. he thought it would break down any minute.

so he wanted a new car and he wouldn´t go back to the station where he rented it cause he didn´t wanna drive there with that car (understandable) so he had asked the station manager if there was any station close by where he could get another car from.

there was one station, but they didn´t had that particular car size he had rented, BUT they had smaller cars that he could borrow and go back to the original station and there get the new car.

but nooo, that´s not good enough!! he wanted the car delivered to him (10+ miles!!!) NO FUCKING WAY is that possible for us! not in a such short notice.

we (the company i work for) said that he could take a taxi to the nearest station and take the car from there and we would stand for the cost of the taxi ride, BUT ONLY to the nearest station.

nope that´s not good enough either.


so i hassled, and worked, and called Italy and the Swedish HQ about how we where supposed to manage this situation...i wasted about 3 hours on him, and that´s NOT even MY JOB!!! i´m not supposed to do such things!!

my job is to make reservations, not be a freakin´ help service of somekind!!

i have no idea how it worked out for him cause i said to him that i had given him the choices we (the company) could offer him, and if that´s not good enough, well there´s not much i can do.

....

by this was over i was hungry and i was late for lunch, and i wasn´t in the mood for seeing Kent live anymore.

the day went on and 5 mins. before i was cloing down i got another customer that was a bit of a struggle to get trough...in the end i ended 20 mins. after i was supposed to...

*sigh*

....

yesterday i was gonna burn out some stuff i have on my harddrive. i made folders and everything and made it ready for burning.

put in a empty DVD disc and was gonna start burn when my burning program asked me to put in a empty DVD disc...i thought that the disc was empty so i just put in another one...nope didn´t work.

i tried with another burning program...no luck...

now apparently the burner had gone FUBAR completely.

so there goes a couple of hundred swedish krons for a new one...

....

and on top of this i haven´t been able to play any online CoD with me mates the Swedish Meatballs.

i haven´t got the time to play almost any game this week. have been to tired when i come home from work.

somedays i have even been to tired to fix dinner.

....

well, now i´m gonna watch some tv or play some CoD or whatever...

see ya!
