Nooooooo - you have to make yourself known - I don't work in the shops but you can bring them to me to enjoy with a cuppa (or something). I would hate it if someone called in and didn't make themselves known

Reference my recent problems with Virgin Media and my television/broadband. Virgin sent two technicians today to rewire it from the terminal out in the street. Should have been here between 08.00 and 13.00. 

First two where here at 07.50. Stayed about an hour just to pull a cable from the terminal 30 metres away in the street and left it hanging over the garden fence. When asked why. They said "we only do the work from the terminal too the fence" 

A short while later two more technicians came one wire up the cable in the terminal box in the street the other buried the cable in the garden and wired it to the box on the outside wall of the house. They where about 40 minutes. 

So four technicians to do a job lasting nearly 2 hours 

 

Seems an awful waste of time and money to me to send four people to do a job that two or even one could have done.

 

However, they where very courteous and even removed their shoes when entering the house. All in all a job well done. Everything seems to be okay now. *crosses fingers hopes that I havent put the mockers on it*

I am soooooooooooo dreading my hangover tomorrow.  Been drinking since 8pm but stopped at 12.30am and been drinking water since then.  Left the bar at 2am, the OH has made me a toastie and I've had water, milk and pain killers along with it and I bet I'm still dying tomorrow.

 

It was a mate's birthday.....she never gets hangovers but if she doesn't have one tomorrow I'll be shocked.

Moonie... I don't think Virgin waste money on engineers.  Not sure how you ended up with four at that hour of the day but I had a chat with the guy who fitted my Tivo box when he was here.   He arrived at 6.30 p.m - and he wasn't even supposed to be doing the installation for me.  He said they have 8 (I think) jobs a day allocated each and they all have to be done that day.  If you finish your eight by 3 p.m. - you have to go and help someone else in your area who isn't on schedule and nobody in the area knocks off until everyone has completed there all eight jobs.  This guy left my house after 7 p.m. and he was off to another town 10 miles away to help someone else, then he had a 20 mile journey home.   It's a system the penalises the hard workers and lets the coaster do little.   Oh, and they're salaried so they're not paid overtime.   The customer service was excellent though - polite, clean and he tidied the mess of wires behind my telly, shortened them, put them in cable ties etc - great job.    I wonder how Liberty Global will run the business.

Should you not be at the hozzie?   My mate gets iritis and she's got a special card that gets her in to the eye department without an appointment because you need to get it treated urgently.

The point I was trying to make, though now very well I guess, was that it took 4 technicians to do a job that 1 could have probably done on his own or with the help of just 1 other Katty.

 

As for Liberty Global, I aint holding my breath
