God this driving me crazy the Site is so buggy
Nothing is working at the moment.
Just yesterday I was out and about and I didn't take The Masters Voice with me mainly because I had 2 urgent things to do and I couldn't be interrupted till they where finished.
Of course I had to make a phone call and I didn't have the beast on me. So I asked for a Public Phone and naturally I didn't have any small change on me just a $2.00 coin for a 50 cent call. It saved me money paying that $2.00 instead of trying to find change in a modern Shopping center without people who take your money. I don't get the idea of introducing Machines to scan in your purchase take your money and give out change when you have a person standing there to work the machines and there are no maned checkouts. Seems to me to defeat the purpose a little but then again maybe because I insist on using a manned checkout I'm weird.
I had to deposit some money into a bank account and naturally the idiots who sent me the forms didn't put the Bank Account Number on the Bloody Form even though they insisted that I directly deposit the money into their account. Some people make me wonder what they use for brains but as they where accountants I suppose I couldn't expect any better.
Anyway in a massive Shopping Center covering about 2 hectares there where 2 public phones and it took just about as long to find them as to drive home ring the crown who I had to pay and then go back to their bank. The only thing it saved me was petrol about a gallon of the stuff so that extra $1.50 that I donated tot he Phone Company was cheap as far as I was concerned.
Also as those phones where more or less on the way to this crowds bank I just had to walk away from the Public Phones and down the isle to their bank so it saved me quite a lot of time really.
I just wonder ever if these things are not used much these days is it really acceptable to only have 2 Public Phones in such a large Public Place. When I left those phones there where about 20 people standing in line to use them.
