Singtel is fucked up

28th April 2011

Wanted to blog on that day and try to change the blog skin. Since I was feeling sick and stuff. I took the day off and went to sleep. Woke up once at around 10 am I think. Heard the election van/truck or whatever it is going pass my house. Noisy like a raving mad man. Come to think of it the authorities like to screw me up when ever I need peace and quiet. When I'm studying they probably have some sort of celebration downstairs. When I need to rest because I'm not feeling well that thing drives pass and wakes me up.

Whatever it is that is not the main point. I went out for lunch at around 1:30. Came back at 2 plus. Guess what? Internet down. Fine I'll go back to sleep. Woke up at 4 when my father came back. Internet still down. Calls up Singtel. They said having maintenance. Asking us to check again 2 hours later. Nearing 7pm... Still down...

Told us that they didn't know why it was taking so long. Waited all the way untill 11 pm. Still down. No formal notification by post that you are going to have maintenance? Who do you think you are? Not all of us have time to check "singnet mail" or your website. At least send a notification SMS if you are going to have maintenance that will disrupt the services of your clients! What kind of service is this? Almost 12 hours of observed down time. I have no idea when the internet was up the last time I checked at around 3 or 4 am it was still down.

Absolute bullshit. If this is what you call good service I'm sorry it is a fail. Failure to notify customers before hand. Failure to restore service on promised time another fail.


Jeez... Piss me off only.


Now we fast forward to one day later.
Supposedly today. But since I post this late. It is now yesterday. If you dont get it >> 29 April 2011.

Woke up feeling better compared to yesterday. Must be that extra nap hours. Like 10 extra hours. Must have replenished all that energy I lost from working. :)
Although I must say my work is not all that tough. Just need to stay awake for the most part.
Ate one piece of bread so my stomach wouldn't growl on the train and off I go. Nearly fell down on the train. So embarrassing -.-" I usually don't fall but today the driver must hate me. Plus there was this woman with her stupid bag on the floor taking up my leg room so I had only 1 A4 size paper of leg room. Imagine someone with my height having to balance myself on such a small space. It's madness.

After that I reached my work place with nothing much happening until I went with my colleagues to buy breakfast... I dropped my teh ping on the floor... I have no idea how. But I think the plastic holding the cup snapped and the whole thing just dropped. $1.20 fly away T.T

The day gets worse when I started getting stupid headaches. Irritating isn't it when you need your brain to be awake to work. But you get distracted by these stupid pains in the head. Ughh...
Whatever the case I still managed to complete my work in record time. Equaling my previous record (when I was wide awake and not half dead). Either way, there doesn't seem to be much left to do. Supply is getting lesser. Hopefully all of us wouldn't get sacked. But if there is no work I will probably leave and find another job. Find job first then leave. I'm not that stupid to leave a position before securing another.

Looking forward to payday amongst other things. Which includes getting a hair cut, getting the bloody watch for NS (and other NS stuff), getting a white shirt for graduation and also the $9 SP tie.


I want time to pass faster. Fast forward to next week please. So tired...

Basketball instead of football tomorrow.
Should probably get started on the blog skin thing. Shouldn't be too different from the current one. I like the layout. Just need a little bit more space. Time to put my architecture brain to work and my coding brain into overdrive. Plus constant clicking of the mouse to find a template to copy from. LOL


It's not about whether I want it. It's about whether I can have it.
