RAGE!

January 6th, 2007

Ok, as most of you know, i’m quite an easy going guy. Not a particularly angry person, but I am at this very moment. Why I hear you ask. Well it all goes back to October. I started my Christmas shopping (very early, i know) and saw a present for my friend Kayleigh I thought she’d like, so I ordered it. Well, waited a few weeks, it had’t arrived, so emailed the people, they said 1 had been sent out already, but that they’d send out another one. “Ok, easy mistake, still got ages” I thought. It’s now December, still didn’t have it. Emailed again (no phone number for them sadly) they said a replacement had been sent out, so was quite annoyed. I was reassured that the next one would be here before Christmas……well guess what, that didn’t arrive either. I explained to Kayleigh, she understood thankfully. Got a phone call on Wednesday saying that they sent out ANOTHER replacement.

Well, come Friday, I received a package. I rejoiced that it had finally come!! I opened it to check for damage etc and what do I find….damage? No, the item is in proper condition…..it’s not what I ordered though! After 4 months of waiting, they send me out the wrong bloody thing! Cheezy is not impressed at all.

What lesson have I learnt? well, a few.

  1. DO NOT USE TOYS R US ONLINE
  2. Check that customer services has a phone number, emails are simply not good enough
  3. Don’t accept their apologies after the second mistake, I know Jesus would, but hey, he was perfect

Rant over…..for now

Big Post…maybe

March 13th, 2006

Ok,its been a while,ive been told to post,so i will

First off, my fave link that i’ve found in a long time- I-God

Its your chance to have a direct line talking to God. Think minimalistic MSN,but to God. You want to chat to him? Go Here

Ok, maybe it isnt actually God, but an AI(Artifitual Intelligence) that pretends to be God and answers your questions and comments, but you know, maybe it will solve lifes problems and tell you how to live your life…or maybe it wont, dont ask me,i just work here.

Saw “The Weatherman” on Friday, and its crap,lol. Sorry, but I got so bored through this “comedy”. The funniest parts were shown in the trailer, and thats always disappointing. I am a fan of Nicholas Cage, and he has made ome fantastic movies in his day(Face Off, The Rock,Gone in 60 Seconds) but this movie cant even be saved by Michael Cane, who plays nic cages dad. The story is that nick cage is a tv weatherman,and is applying for a job in new york to be a mega paid weatherman, he has an ex wife and 2 kids,and his father is dying, his sons councellor is a paedophile, and his daughters nickname is camel toe(im not explaining that one to you innocent readers) It might be a more girly movie, as something called “feelings” are needed i believe:P

Snow….isnt it great?! Ive always loved snow, and i hope i always will love it. Theres just so much you can do with it. Build snowmen, throw snowballs,bury people in it,build a ramp to sledge down, its so good. Me,alan,james,gillian,katie,dave,steve,aline and helen built an 8 foot snowman yesterday, it was quite impressive, was quite heavy,but looked great. Although, the acheivment of the day was the 5 foot ramp we built to make the sledging better, as there wasnt really a steep enough hill. There wearnt any serious injuries, but lots of extrmely funny moments, such as gillian being dropped over a fence,through some leaves,so that the snow from the leaves landed on her as she hit the ground, and she then couldnt figure out how to get out,but i helped,being the kind person that i am,haha. Alan and Ben do deserve medals or something for doing it.

Ok,time for a wee rant.

Space, the final frontier, in alot of the world governments, it seems a good idea to send people and probes and sattelites into space in order to “make things better for the world”, thats complete rubbish, and they know it. What would be better for the world, would be to give even 1/4 of what they spend on a space craft to the African nations, thus solving world hunger i one swift move. Think, Ameica spends a whole load of cash on space exploration, then turn round and say “yh,wordl hunger sucks, if only there was a way of solving it…….oh look, have you seen our new 65 million dollar space program?” It sucks! It really does. Now, in all honesty, i dont give money to charity at the moment, i dont even tithe yet(but im working on it). Now, when I grow up(if it ever happens) and i get a proper full time,well paid job, yh,ill give some cash to the needy, we’re all equal, why should it be that people in “lesser” countries be less fortunate than i am? They shouldnt!

Just had to get it out my system.

Had a university interview 2 weeks ago…except i was ill and couldnt go,so phoned and cancelled, and was SO worried i wouldnt get another one, but theyve sent me one for the 29th March, so im actually so excited about it, i love interviews, dont know why,but i just do. I dont get nervous about them and just get o and do what needs done. This one is fro strathclyde which is my first choice, had one for edinburgh a month ago, and still aint heard, but dunno if i want to go there anyway. Lets face it, edinburgh = sucky,crappy and…erm…other not nice words. well,in my opinion anyway.

Well, i think thats enough for today.

The life of a ginger

June 27th, 2005

As you all know, i am “blessed” with ginger hair, as such, many burdons come with that.

1. Fair skin- I am SO white i make albino’s look tanned. So far, I have only found one person more white than me, and that’s eugene from Big Brother. It’s hard, cos it means i get burnt extremely easily, and i’m in pain just now due to that.

2. Random abuse- us poor gingers do get alot of abuse. I say abuse, it’s usually just “hahaha, your ginger, hahaha”, and that hurts so much (is that sarcasm). Woopdeedoo, you’re not colour blind is the usual comment back from me. There are people who get more abuse than gingers tho and they deserve it(thinks of neds).

3. Not being able to be a secret agent- Its the middle of the night, and i’m meant to steal some info from the Russians(its always the Russians), but as I go to complete the mission, i’m seen due to my hair! That kinda sucks.

Overall, we gingers are disadvantaged alot in life, but i shall rise above it. One day, gingers shall rule the world(after Big Al’s finished with it of course)

Cheezy ;)

Rant 1

June 23rd, 2005

Well that’s me finished all college work as of last week, which I thought was gonna be great, sit about, sleep in, do no work…..but, it’s actually rather boring. How many times can you talk to the same person on MSN for?

The Cheezyboy really needs to get a job. I’ve applied for like 6, of which 1 I had an interview, sessional play worker with the council, £7 an hour, but it’s the council, so they’ll take AGES to reply to anything….unless they want money off you of course, then they’ll actually hand deliver things to you, which annoys me.

[edit]Got a phone call from them today, saying that I missed something in my disclosure Scotland form. That’s good, as if they wearn’t interested in hiring me, why put in my form?

The Cheezyboy is happy for just now, but please, enjoy the rant[/edit]

So, i could either be working during the summer, or sit here and melt, which I don’t wanna do. It annoys me that companys take ages to reply to anyone who applies to them, why wouldn’t they want ME working for them?!!!! Westend letting employed me in its hayday, but that was the supreme company. Even debenhams employed me, I phoned them today and said i can start work in August, so my details have been passed on the the Glasgow store, so I SHOULD hear from them soon, but not likely.

If I dont hear from the council soom, i’m tempted to just lose interest, and tell them where to go, but that would be counter productive, so I prob won’t.

Anyway, thats me got that off my chest.

Please, tell me your thoughts
