Trust?

First of all, let me say, this blog post is definitly a RANT. I am so angry right now and Im not going to take it out on facebook! First of all, some advice...NEVER EVER set up a phone contract in your name for somebody else, I have found out the hard (and expensive!) way.

I set up a 24 month contract for a friend back in October on the promise that the bill would be paid monthly, (it was with my details but my friends bank account). Well, the bill was never bloody paid! After several letters I got a letter from the phone company asking for payment of the bill (around £200). Now I can NOT afford to pay it, so after calling vodafone and explaining the situation (and I did try and change the names on the contract but was told I couldn't!)


Anyway, I spoke to a lovely guy and he sorted it out for me, as my case was under 'exceptional circimstances' they said they would waver the rest of the connection fee (around £800). So now I have to pay £40 a month for 6 months without any contract and they won't send any debt collectors around. I don't regret what I did as I was helping out a friend and at the time I didn't know this would happen, also I have learnt the hard way.
My friend is sending me the money to pay the contract which is what should be done. I haven't fallen out over it, it's just one of these things but NEVER EVER do it, and I want phone companies to put a stop to letting friends taking out contracts for others. It shouldn't be allowed!

Another load of stress is my job, yes it's still shit! I was stuck on bake-off all day today (obviously boiling hot), the stupid place is giving me spots (something I have never suffered with before). One manager tells me one thing, the other tells me something else, and then I get shouted at. It's a load of bollocks, Im doing 16 hours, the rota's are constantly changing so it's impossible to make plans. I've had to re-arange 2 appointments whilst I've been there already, and that's a lot considering I havent been there a month!
Im still job-hunting and applied for another today, this time at pound world, not fantastic but it's full-time and a HELL of a lot better than greggs!

Today's tune Im loving is Lady Gaga - Born This Way



Don't get me wrong, I cannot STAND Lady Gaga, I think she is VERY over-rated and wants to be the next Madonna. She has an average voice put I think she is so popular as her songs are so catchy and her videos are entertaining. I haven't put the video up because I HATE the video. I like the song because it is good to dance to. (After Thursday I know Im good at dancing to it as well!). Definitly want to hear this one in Malia!
