My Galaxy S2 keeps swapping from the mobile site to the full site. Bloody annoying. I thought it was my big thumbs accidentally tapping the full site button but it happens constantly now.

Selling is fun, so is buying.

 

Its the negotiation I like. I find it thrilling to be part of something tense with many possible outcomes. Its a test of my people skills and my patience (which could always use work).

 

WGMG - Being a normal person with a normal amount of money and dealing with doctors in their world.

 

Basically sold a lot of my spares to fund an operation, paid the money one week before on the due date by the skin of my teeth. Then got a call not 3 hours after handing over all my cash to say that the earliest possible surgery date has been withdrawn and its out of their hands yadda yadda. I explained that I had sold stuff I would otherwise have kept to pay for this operation as the date is extremely important with work projects etc. Ended up having to accept their shitty terms and get it done. Even though I just knew the guy wanted an extra week at Noosa (they already told me he was there).

 

So the operation was done a week ago, and now they still haven't sent me an invoice that medicare will accept, so 3 weeks later after paying I'm still completely out of pocket for the surgery and anaesthetic. I ring them up to ask when its coming and I get an open ended response.

 

I don't know how it must feel to be completely unconcerned about money, but it must be very liberating. Certainly would make it easy to lose sight of what people in the real world go through.
