[11:41] <daftykins> heh glad i subcontracted sorting out the domain payment to the client, he gets to sit on the phone several times now and coax them to resolve things
[11:42] <zxmpi> your call is important to us... please hold... there are.... 1272... ahead of you... *MUZAK*
[11:42] <daftykins> i can only imagine he was rude to them, 'cause when i tried i was awaiting a call transfer and then got cut off :D
[11:43] <zxmpi> i've seen a few where if you've been on hold 15 minutes they just drop the call
[11:43] <daftykins> hehe that's cheeky, i don't think i got that far
[11:43] <zxmpi> *BZZZZZT* companies on my kill list?
[11:44] <zxmpi> well it's /kinda/ smart. only a % of those will ring back immediately and rejoin the queue. bloody annoying for the users mind
[11:48] <daftykins> yeah got to thin the herd somehow
[11:49] <daftykins> they're based in Carlow, Blacknight - do enjoy hearing a true Irish accent occasionally when i've had to speak to them :D
[11:49] <zxmpi> i think a few of the lads hang out in irish irc. it's the xkcd shiboleet of support :-P
[11:50] <daftykins> :D
[11:50] <zxmpi> still one of my favourite xkcd https://xkcd.com/806/
[11:52] <daftykins> :)
[11:53] <daftykins> when the client said he'd been typing his Microsoft MFA token into the domain registrar page i had a great WTF moment
[11:53] <daftykins> gave him a good lecture about that
[11:54] <zxmpi> should put his mothers maiden name and dogs name there too :-P
[11:59] <daftykins> heh yeah just all of it
[11:59] <daftykins> he tried to downplay it as "well it's only relevant for a limited time!"
[11:59] <daftykins> yeah, but knowing that it's UNIQUE to one service is pretty key to life D:

[17:38] <davef> Oh my dear lord.
[17:39] <davef> I found Cathedral City cheddar cheese at my local grocery store!
[17:39] <daftykins> ooh :D
[17:39] <davef> REAL CHEESE AT LAST!
[17:39] <davef> Not the crap they usually sell here
[17:41] <daftykins> surely such a large country has at least made a decent stab at cheese?
[17:42] <davef> some of them are good
[17:42] <davef> but nothing can beats the proper british tang on cheddar cheese from Britain 
[17:42] <daftykins> others left you cheesed off?
