Leaving things to the last minute.
Like the post title says, I’ve left my course work to the last minute. I’ve left buying a printer and scanner/photocopier to the last minute. I’ve left looking over my bosses’ notes from last years couse to the last minute. Argh.
I’ve had five weeks to complete this module. In those five weeks I’ve had 10 full days off, plus plenty of days where I’ve been working back shift so could work on it during the day. I’ve done nothing but type and look up the National Lottery and Camelot websites but it’s still not done. So now I have until 10am on Wednesday morning to complete it, since that’s when my workgroup starts at the office. I’ve only writen about 50 pages, with an addition 20 as evidence. That’s only 70 pages which seems like nothing compared to the example folder which we were shown. I hope I haven’t screwed up, I want this so, so badly.
Plus my mum ordered an all in one printer for me from an online store who offered next business day delivery. It should have been delivered today but the money’s not even come out of her account yet. I doubt very much that I’ll get it tomorrow which means I’ll have to go to PC World on the bus, buy a massive all-in-one printer and come home on the bus with it. Not looking forward to that. Especially since the company that she’s bought me one from seem to be complete scam artists. She checked them out before she put through her order but only on Kelkoo and Pricerunner. It seems that the company themselves has written the reviews on these sites making them out to be excellent. It’s only when I went on a scout around to find their phone number that I came across other websites full of complaints and horror stories about them.
I’ve already complained to Kelkoo about them promoting a bogus company (which they are..they trade under three different names with three different phone numbers but are all registered to the one building, whose post code is wrong on all their websites) who rip off customers. I tried called each number I found, only to be cut off after 30-45 minutes without even talking to somebody. They’ve not replied to an email sent over 15 hours ago and now I’m pissed off.
May I scream now?
