so i decide to take leave on a monday...

... and checked out the sky in the morning, sun's shining bright. so i tell myself,

'why not go swim this morning, grab a tan, relax the muscles, exercise...?'

i got into the pool at 10.14am. the dark clouds came on like at 10.34am. oh, did i forget the rumbling thunder?

so i decide 'ain't gonna get no tan, no swim and no exercise...' and pack up and go home.

i reach home at 11.40am. the sky is clear and the sun is out.

WTF!!

my freaking morning at the australian embassy

I spent like 4.5 bloody hours at the Australian Embassy earlier today.

1) for someone else, not myself.
2) to hear the words, ' we are investigating', 'we are waiting for information', 'we do not know how long it will take', 'thanks you can go now'.
3) did i mention that i didn't get an explanation as to why i was there for 4.5 bloody hours on a monday morning?
4) anyone knows the service quality dept number that i can call...just to have someone from the organisation on the line - so that i can farking yell at them. yes, it will make me feel better.
5) don't get me wrong, i still like the aussies. it's their freaking embassy staff and all that i am griping about. (yes BE, Nic and DE, i still love you guys.)
6) frustration cannot be avoided when you wait 4.5 hours to hear,
'yes you can go now, that will be all.'
'can i ask why were we waiting for so long?'
'no, i cannot share that with you.'
'that will be all'
...and dismisses us with a glance.
7) yes i am still pissed.
