Telkom, in their response to a SPAM complaint from a Telkomsa.net email address. I included the full headers with my original, plus some suggestions as to where to find copies of the ECT and CP Acts, and even a link to Telkom's own terms and conditions.

Idiot response 1 said:

You are just pissed because you don't have a prayer room at the office.

I was on my way to the management office trying to deliver my prayer room petition before they left for golf. This fecking Sunday driving grandma was in front of me going at 15km/h

After following her for what seemed like an hour, I decided to pass her. As I passed her, she decided to speed up and ended up driving at 80kmh. Risking life and limb, I overtook, and spotted the granny dude shaking his fist at me

Anyway, I didn't manage to submit the said petition

At least I like your audi station wagon:p
 
autotrader's website. You're selling advertising! How about a pricelist! This is not rocket science, people! I'm more likely to ignore you completely if you don't put a pricelist on your website.

Like First Cut, a week ago - I wouldn't have even phoned them if they didn't have a flashing red link to their pricelist pdf - ended up buying from them. That's how you run a business.

And FNB.
FFS is there a way to opt out of their weekly sales calls?
 
Weak team members + high pressure deadline. :(

Was more annoyed about the timing. Having a couple hours to pack for a month away is not ideal. Half my laundry was still wet ffs

You haven't even had a chance to change your location.

There aren't any netflix CDNs near you (nearest one is ZA & don't think you've got good pipes to there)

I did actually move. Previous hotel had dial-up speeds. New one has ~4mbps. Decent but lets just say I've never stayed in a place this expensive so I'd have expected blazing speeds.
