It was just before lunch when I decided to go pay the bills. All our bills can be paid at the front reception of our compound except for the phone bill. So I showed the bill to the receptionist, pointed to the address and said, "this is where I go to pay it?" She replies yes. So I proceed to the street to get a taxi.
There are many places to pay the phone bill. Say for example the post office around the corner. UGH! I thought it was the Telecom office, anyways. The driver takes me to the head office many kms away. I pay the bill no problem.
Now I need to get a taxi back home, oh my gosh all the taxis are red(busy). No green ones anywhere. So I start walking, no point in standing in the heat. UGH! Finally I get a taxi. I am now sitting in it writing so as not to lose me pissed offness, before I get a chance to share my experience.
Next time I get the phone bill... ...I'm making Chris pay it! No, next time I will call our property management or former tenant "Li" and have them take me. Or at least have them write the correct address to the closer payment office. Getting car sick.
So I am home now. Both ways the taxi fee came to the same amount as the phone bill. I had the driver stop at the Lianhua (corner store). I deserve a drink! Got some tonic water for my gin, yay!
So for the valiant effort and not giving up on my phone bill. Cheers T.I.C.
