The Blender-Internet connection

My blender broke down and I couldn't make my usual smoothie this morning. That sucks. I had to chew all the crap that I put into the smoothie and now I feel tired and a little dizzy. My tooth aches too -not use to that amount of heavy work so early in the morning.

The good thing is that my internet connection is up and running again! It's been working on and off for the last 10 days or so but Friday it didn't work at all. So, as a good citizen I called Time Warner and I stood on the phone 20 minutes waiting, and waiting and waiting. Is not really a good idea to play promotions when you're calling a customer service line, as 99.9% of the calls are to report something that is not working properly. Do you think after 20 minutes listening to all kind of crazy promotions and great advantages am I going to upgrade whatever crap they're offering? And after a very polite girl said that it was going to take 5 days for someone to come over and check my shit anytime between 8AM and 7PM, I tell you what: the last thing I want is one more reason to call'em again due to problem with that great "promotion". Guys, just play some of that telephone music that at least it keeps people relaxed.

Anyway, I made an appointment and it took me 20 minutes to get one, so I'll let them come and check my internet connection even if is only to say: "Every thing is all right sir".

By the way, why is it that all these people that come to check your computer, or your cable or whatever are always men? In porn movies is always beautiful girls with little dresses and fire in their eyes. Whether they fix the problem or not one thing is sure: they always leave customers happy!
