Damn! Talk about persistent! Either that or you just don't know how to be firm with strangers so that they get the idea! :P
Also you havn't started a full day of actual work yet and your journal entries are already twice as long! ... that makes me feel a bit better! With that in mind I better start my bitching for the day in mine hehehe
Oh I can be firm.. I've shut the door and hung up on people before.. :P But he was kind of entertaining.. til I realised he was being serious.
Hm. Imagine how long tomorrow's post is going to be then. Full day of work plus three hour council meeting. Yay! :| Actually.. I'll probably be so tired that I'll only post a sentence..
It was a good day.. we were just being shown around and told what to expect etc.. and I met my regional editor and also the other intern that I'll be working with.. there was supposed to be three of us but someone didn't show.. :|
I'm going over to your journal now to read your bitching.. :P
You've shut the door and hung up on people before hey? (besides your sister?)
We get a lot of callers at work asking us if we want to save money on our phone bills. We just go "yeah our boss will be interested please hold the line" and then we just leave them on hold. Hey ok that sounds mean but I was polite the first 20 or so times they called!
Haha.. it's my sister that slams door and hangs up on me.. not the other way round.. :P
Leaving people on hold.. now that's really, really mean! At least if you hang up on them then they can bug someone else. :P
Well.. I have to write about five news/feature stories and other smaller stories for the next issue of the Messenger in my area. So I have to go out and interview people and ring people and write and run around like crazy. Should be.. interesting. :|
