Universal annoyances
Oct. 26th, 2010 11:57 amCalls to try to get you to switch phone companies. I got one yesterday - on the Blackberry issued by my office, so that was a wasted call on my part.
(OTE - Hellenic Telecom, I guess it'd be translated - has a bad habit of doing that. They called me in the middle of the workday earlier this month to try to sell me on Internet TV - I don't watch enough TV for it to be worthwhile, and the channel selection was unappetizing.)
Deliveries scheduled in a broad band of time - in this case, sometime between 9am and 7pm. Who can block out an entire day to wait for something like that?
(Bought a nice mouse for my PC, but one button didn't work. Logitech was great about sending out a replacement, but I'm getting a bad feeling I may have to go out to the airport in Spata to pick up the damn package.)
