I Am Writing To Complain......

Before I start :- Mmm mean & moody Emma & Darren. They make such a cute couple.

Don't people just make you want to scream? But what good would that do, apart from making me loose my voice which would please my workmates I'm sure. This is what I'm moaning about today: -

Some complete bitch who I'll call CLA phined to check on the two buses she had booked for tomorrow. I checked the dairy and JK's sheets even though I knew fine well she had nothing. I told her so. She said she'd sent a fax through to confirm it and she was looking at it now.
"Yes, so am I," I said.
"Then it should be booked."
"I'm afraid not. Your group are not members and as we are ruled by Section 19 you have to be a member of our company before you can have a bus. It's the law," I explained patiently
"I can't believe it. I have the fax here, I know it was booked."
"I'm sorry there's nothing in the diary."
"I'm very annoyed. I have 30 children who will be disappointed tomorrow."
"I understand that but I'm afraid there's nothing we can do." (which is true as we don't even have any drivers available to do the run on the sly)
"No you don't. The children will be disappointed. I can't belive this. I'm sending in a letter of complaint," she snapped putting the phone down.

She can do what she likes. I phoned her back immediately upon recieving her fax on 31 Oct. It kicked into answer machine so I left a message asking her to ring myself or one of my colleagues. She never did. If she had she'd have been told that she wasn't a member and had to be one before she could have a bus. In which instance she'd have had two choices 1) become a member or 2) go elsewhere for transport. But she didn't. So I'm in the right so I don't care what she complains about. It will provide us with some much needed entertainment as for some reason everyone is depressed today.

Also slightly narking me is SCD or more acurately the british voting public. Emma & Darren were back in form on Saturday and totally rocked with twirls, lifts, slides and even technical difficulties with a microphone but its looking more & more obvious that Mark & Karen are going to win. What's narking me are the females that are voting for Mark because he is cute (though he's not in my opinion) rather than voting for the couple that are the best dancers. It's very annoying but what can you do? It almost makes me ashamed to be female.

On the plus side I got my first xmas present from AT. A cute fluffy white teddy that plays jolly xmas music such as "We wish you a merry xmas" & "Santa Claus is coming to town" when you press its belly. The guys hate it already - bah humbug - & have threatened to throw it out the window or run it over with one of our buses. So I warn you now: if anything happens to my little bear there will be hell on.

Ciao for now.
