Frustration by maggiemae

Frustration

We are being remarkably patient. Our broadband/internet has gone off line 75% of the day. You just start loading something and it goes off, you can’t save it, you have to start from the beginning!
I’m not sure I will be able to post my day’s photo!. If not, we will have to use our limited mobile resources!
John has called the server at least 7 times, talked to other supporters, no action.
Three good things:
1. Its been off for 22 hours now so we consoled ourselves by eating chocolate! Wrecked the Fit’bit’s ideas!
2. A little bit of chocolate always encourages a little bit more!
3. Put winter sheets on the spare beds.
I sympathise and share your frustrations. Modern technology is great when it works but...

So sorry about your frustrating experiences! If chocolate can’t fix it nothing can. Worry about that Fitbit after you have your broadband fixed.

My goodness! That’s awful. I wonder what is going on? Do you know anyone else who uses that company? If so, are they having trouble too?

Maybe you will get better service if you do not pay for the days you had no service! Just keep eating chocolate until you forget all about it and fall asleep instead! :)

that would be frustrating.

So frustrating! A sad, but well done documentary shot.

Oh dear, how frustrating. Chocolate is a great consolation prize for frustration though.

I'm with Babs - chocolate is always a great consolation prize. Hope it is all fixed for you soon.

Isn't it amazing how we have become so dependant on technology, and I speak for myself too. Our TV is linked to the internet and probably 80% of the programs we watch are streamed, I hate watching advertisements. It's probably one of those strange glitches you have and you broadband will be back working without ever being fixed. Fingers crossed.

@gamelee Its not 'dependant' Lee but just part of our lives. We can exist without it but things don't get done and you can't communicate. Not a strange glitch but we have now got a new modem and its doing the same thing - on and off! grrr!

@happypat I can't see anybody's photos or comment on them Pat and I do so enjoy that! I certainly can do without it for a while but one feels that if you lose contact with all our 365 friends, they will forget you!

Hope you're re-connected very soon. Very frustrating in the meantime.

be sure to ask for a rebate for the times you have no connection. Must start taking note of times and dates.
May 30th, 2018  
p.s. - no one will forget you for you are one exceptional lady and not easily forgotten ❤
May 30th, 2018  
Its so frustrating when your internet is down. Makes us wonder how we ever coped without it!
May 30th, 2018  
I don't think they will forget you maggie but it's the personal contact I have missed too. Wifi came back on at midnight & my mind must have been tuned in as I have woken up ten minutes later! Catching up with home is good but have been remarkably unfazed about 365, think I was ready for a break! Anyway back to normal now!
