*adsl not working... what's the point if it doesn't load pages!!
*tpg customer service people... imagine, if you will, a conversation similiar to this:
after 10mins of hold music.
"hello this is sanjay, how can i help you"
"oh yeh, hi, my customer name is 'blah blah' and i'm just wondering if you guys are having problems with your adsl service today"
silence for about 30 seconds (except for his breathing into the phone)
"ok can i get your username, and how can i help you"
"ah, yeh, the customer name is 'blah blah' and my internet's not working, and i'm just wondering if it's a problem at your end"
another 30 sec or so of breathy silence
"so it's 'blah blah', alright, how can i help you"
"yes, can you tell me if there's any reason for my internet not to be working!"
"what's the user name?"
"well the customer name is 'blah blah'"
"no, the user name"
"umm... it's 'rada-rada'"
"and what's the problem?"
"the internet won't connect"
"it seems to be working"
"ok, so maybe it's a problem at our end?"
"maybe, thankyou, goodbye"
and hang up...
goooooooood!!!!!!
