Is it just me that has terrible luck with service industry people?
We have been seeing and killing spiders all this week. Not my cup of tea, as anyone who knows me knows.
But…the bug guy still isn’t here so I’m going to have to call…for the 3rd time. Maybe I need to sound tougher on the phone, maybe I should watch some jersey shore and take some mouthing cues from those girls.
I don’t want to be one of those wives that has to have her husband take care of this kind of stuff all the time, but this is ridiculous. You should have been around for the whole “trying-to-get-at&t-service-set-up-saga.” Talk about frustrating.
Grrr… Alright, I’m putting on my mean voice. Nobody ignores me when I’m living in a spider-infested apartment!
Be persistant! (and in the mean time, keep squishing spiders!)
turns out the first guy I talked to was “confused.” he only comes every other friday, and it’s next week. so we’re on that list…although I’m sure I’ll still have to call and check back in!
Be tough…don’t let them take advantage of you. I would say use your “Mom” voice, but you don’t have that yet. Just imagine how your Mom would sound if she was doing the calling and use that voice.
I had the same trouble trying to get the electric switched over to my name for my place. Grrr! Glad to hear I’m not alone. Let me know how it goes! 🙂
You tell ’em, Melissa! I remember the AT&T call … that was crazy. You gotta show ’em who’s boss! Channel Monica, maybe (Hallye has been watching a lot of Friends, lately).
