British Telecom.
Fucking monolithic organisations with thousands of departments none of whom know what any of the others do and none of whom are prepared to actual do anything to help. Finally find the right department and the phone rings and rings and rings. All of this to log a fault with a fucking shitty web-app that won't even allow you to do so until you've done most of their job for them by running line diagnostics. Once you do that, you then have to answer a hundred irrelevant questions before you get told that this service has no SLAs and will get done whenever it fucking gets done. PLUS I have to go through this caper every time I want to log a fault because you have to install a client and an update which then immediately breaks WITHOUT FAIL after the first time you use it requiring a complete account reset.
In the meantime the branch is ringing up every half an hour because they can't do their fucking online shoe shopping and are insinuating that actually the fault hasn't been fixed because *I'm* shit at *my* job.
And this isn't even the worst part of my day, let alone the previous month.
I am on the verge of just walking out. I've had it.

Aside from being on the verge of a rage-induced aneurysm, you mean?

Yeah not bad. Feeling pretty good.
I've been increasing the amount of greens I've been eating and have noticed a marked increase in my energy levels.
