Seriously…. wtf?!

Filed under: Bitching, General rant

What the f*** is wrong with people? people = retailers in this situation. I have been trying ALLLLL day to spend money, and NO ONE wants it!!!

First I go to pay my car rego, they wouldn’t take my Mastercard. The lady was like ‘why don’t you do it for six months?’ and I said ‘if I wanted to do it for six months, I would have ticked the 6 month box, not the 12 month box’. So I did it online when I got home. And I did it for 6 months in the end too. But then they wouldn’t let me have it posted to my house cos I’m not my mum, so I couldn’t change the address. So now it’s going there first, then she’ll send it here. And that’s a big IF they send it. They took my money, but I’m not sure if the car actually got registered, cos of the address changing BS.

I also ordered a graphics card online. They don’t take Mastercard either. They also don’t want me to pay until I have confirmation they have the product in stock. Then I have to pay them as soon as I receive the confirmation email. What if I don’t happen to check my emails that day?! Not likely, seeing as I check 10 times a day…. but it might be one of those odd days where they don’t get checked till late in the evening….

I went to buy a laptop. Got refused credit. Apparently unemployed people don’t earn enough. And suddenly finance companies have ethics. Since when did that happen?! Two months ago I was getting credit without asking for it!! So then I rang my current finance company, and they are refusing me any more money till I completely finish my current HP. How dumb is that?! I could have just got a $5000 loan in the first place and bought a whole ton of shit, but instead I spent $1000 and now they won’t give me another $1000. Fucktards…. so many finance companies are on my personal blacklist. Dumbasses don’t know what they’re missing out on.

So in the end I lay-by’d the laptop.  BTW - how come everyone stil calls them laptops? They are actually notebooks… and have been notebooks longer than they were laptops I think.

Anyway, while I’m waiting for the credit BS to decline, I go to have more charms attached to my bracelet. The lady at the shop is rude as, and when I say I want one moved, she’s all ‘it’s gonna cost more’, like in saying that I was going to change my mind. I said I wanted it moved, SO MOVE IT ALREADY!! Then when she finally sorted her shit out she charged me half what I was expecting to pay anyway.

And also while I was waiting for the credit BS, I went to Starbucks, and these people came in, sat down and started eating their McDonalds. Didn’t order any coffee. They must have known one of the staff though, cos when she fucked up a drink order, she gave the first one to one of these kids. So not only do they eat their shitty McDonalds in Starbucks, they get FREE coffee as well. How rude.

Plus the parking meters in this part of town are less than half the price of the ones in town. Which is just as well, cos I was there for 4 hours.

So you see? ALLLLLL these money making opportunities, and people are just letting them pass by… I think the lesson of the day is not to go to this part of town. Apart from that fact it’s dodgy as hell and the residents are so white trash, you can’t actually do any shopping there, cos no one will take your money.
