               at least I have something to do for the moment.

        I'm getting really tired of calling their hotlines.

I'm tired of hearing their lame excuses.



Anyway, here are some funny comments from other people experiencing the same problem with PLDT. This is from http://www.macalua.com/2006/06/27/pldt-mydsl-sucks/

I picked out some of the best comments I've read.

PLDT is clearly violating Republic Act No.7394
Article 2(b) protection against deceptive, unfair and unconscionable sales acts and practices;

…and a lot of the the articles. You can read the whole republic act here. http://www.chanrobles.com/republicactno7394.htm

Case-in-point, people hate PLDT.

To hell with PLDT! myDSL sucks...BIG TIME!!!

It's official. I hate PLDT. To hell with their over the top quality service, I'm uber satisfied with the way they respond to my God damn concerns!!! Their effin' call center agents are of great help, they're so helpful that after two weeks of incessant follow-ups, my connection is still irritatingly slow. It's like the dsl of the stone age.

What am I supposed to do with a 29kbps connection huh? at 69kbps max? How in the world am I going to browse the net with this speed? I don't use the internet just to watch webpages load themselves til the end of time. I mean, come on! DSL with a worse-than-dial-up speed? FUCK THEM!!!

I'm so tired of calling their moronic agents.

What's up with the non-stop testing? Can't they see that my internet doesn't need testing? It has been tested a hundred time already. What it needs is not testing, it needs FIXING!

(God! I hate those idiots!)

Now that they're done testing, they told me that they're going to send us a technician to fix the damn line. But, to no surprise (knowing the kind of service PLDT offers), after five days of waiting, no one showed up. Amazing. Great way to touch lives (their tagline)

And it really bugs me more that I see their stupid myDSL commercials on tv, everyday. I swear, if I could just smash those endorsers' pieholes, I would, just to shut them up.

Grudgingly yours,

ME

Stalking Tendencies

Aarrgghh!!!

I feel so awful. I feel like I'm such a big stalker. I know I'm not but somehow, I feel like I am. You see, I was exploring friendster looking for people I may or may not know and I came about this account that I knew I have seen before only it was a bit different. Can you follow?

Maybe I should start from the beginning.

A long time ago, back when friendster was still young and I was still new, I have been doing a lot of explorations. You know, people I recognize and people that I might have seen before and stuff like that. During exploration, I came about this account that caught my attention. Ranson. I thought, what a cool name. I haven't heard it before. So I got interested and searched friendster for a name like that and apparently that time, there were no accounts the same as that one. So I clicked it and found out that it was an account of two male adults sharing something special. (you know what I mean).

I got more curious so I explored a little futher and found out that these two people sharing the account were named Randy and Hudson and I thought, "So that's where Ranson came from". Wow. And based from the testimoinials they get, they were one sweet couple. (plus more adjectives describing how good their relationship was).

They had separate accounts and I was thinking twice of knowing further, digging deeper and I thought, "Hey! What the heck, I'm already stalking". So looked into their accounts who they are, what they do and stuff like that. (see the stalking tendencies?). Then I got tired, logged off and never again did I dwell into their lives.

And now, here's where things got a little more interesting. Just recently, as in very recently (like 20 minutes ago recent), I came over their names again. Actually it was Randy's name that I saw and recognized the account. This brought back the things that I remembered about him. My curiosity got the best of me, I clicked on the account. (what? why would I do that?)

In the account, (this is where things get a little jucier. hehe) there was this blog entitled "The Art of Letting Go" and another one "Betrayal". I was like "What? Did they break up?". I read the blog and apparently, they did. They were no longer together and the blog entries were so dramatic. I checked on Hudson's account and he's already with someone else. Talk about moving on, this guy's quick.

Anyway, it's just so sad that something that seemd so perfect turned out the other way. And I'm talking about guys here (hellooooh?), not the regular boy girl relationships. And mind you, that Hudson guy, is with another guy named Clark. (see how my stalking tendencies could go? f*ck! I should stop it right now) I know it's none of my business, they're not my friends anyway but the thought that I knew about them and what they had, even through the damned friendster website and for a really short period, it somehow sent me a message that reiterated "Nothing lasts forever and the only constant thing is change".

I may have stalking tendencies but at least I learned something from the experience. Not the whole stop stalking thing but the nothing lasts forever part. Hehe.

By the way, the Ranson account was gone as well.
