home delivery.....at rig???

Well kids, I've just been on the phone with the receptionist at LeCornu. Our furniture and carpet specialists. Unfortunately they need some phone answering specialists. Although the receptionist did her upmost best and was extremely polite, no matter what she did, the bastards down in "after sales" wouldn't pick up their extention phone.

So I'm eagerly waiting by the satellite phone here at work. They will ring me back (before 12 noon- cos thats when I knock off). It only cost's about $5 per minute to call here. Hmmnnn....
I'm sure they can afford it.

I'm getting a new bed. A really big new bed. A bed so large, that when it arrives, I will go " oh shit - I didn't realise it was so big!"

Hmmnn..... nice :)

Only problem is ....... I knew I would be at work the day it got delivered. No worries. Asked a good friend to house sit that day and take care of my home delivery. However, the day before I left for work, I got a letter saying there was some problem and my delivery was delayed because they hadn't made the bed yet. It said they would contact me to arrange another delivery date.

The strange thing is, 2 days before I came to work (and the day before I received the letter in the first place), I actually rang to check the approximate time of delivery because my house sitting mate had kids to pick up after school. I also wanted to see if I could change the delivery date. The kind lady on the end of the phone told me it was too late, because my goods had already been picked up by the delivery guys, awaiting delivery to my house.

Now, how can my bed that hasn't been made, get picked up by the delivery guys????
