Things that please you...

[PhreakBoy]

Long conversations with my kids.

 

[Larry_Fisherman]

Being scheduled for load shedding and still having power. Who knew that incompetence could please me.

 

[zulucat]

It pleases me that ever since the load shedding started - I have never experienced it - perhaps it is because my street is home to police and fire stations. Sometimes I feel left out when people discuss their load-shedding woes, I feel less of a South African.

OMG enjoy it. I wish I lived closer to the 24 hour clinic.

They don't load shed areas near police stations? They'd sleep better in the dark.

Can you imagine the fire station not being able to open their huge electronic doors ?

Police stations not fire stations. Also, not all police stations are close to fire stations.

Eskom doesn't care, they can't distinguish between where a hospital, fire station or police station is.

I work near a fire station, load shedding still happens, there's a massive police station in the area as well. I live near a police station and it's shed as well.

You're somehow lucky, there's a guy at work who also never gets shed.

Yes - I realise that I ignored your joke and for that I apologise

Our police and fire station are near a hospital. They do not get shed.

Are you sure? Cause there's even media about hospitals being shed and I literally can go out and see the fire station while there is shedding happening. I can drive up the road to the police station and there is shedding.

Police helplines, ATMs and public services take strain during load shedding

Rolling blackouts in South Africa have affected some public services over the last few days, including the police's emergency phone line in Port Elizabeth, and some ATMs.

Unitas is one of the biggest hospitals with all sorts of specialists. They do not get shed - but they do have generators too

 

[Moereloos]

My work laptop supplied by the company.
It ran on battery power, with an external monitor and wireless keyboard and mouse from 06:40 to 13:46 and still had 18% battery life left... And with an SSD and enough RAM it is super fast compared to the desktop I used till recently

All of our children have been born there, and I was there when I got assaulted.

And it's close to home as well. Hope they will keep up the high standards.

I was also there as IT tech to assist doctors with their gecomputerdingen.

The KFC Masala chicken. It made me so happy, even if deep down I knew I was eating sugar disguised as tasty chicken. It's gone now, discontinued at my branch.

One of the ladies in the office ensures that everyone has a fresh cup of coffee by the time they walk in.

Kream Balls

I thought that was a euphemism, best not Google it.
