It’s amazing how much you can achieve while waiting on hold for the PCCW business netvigator @work hotline 1833 822 before they deign to put a human on the end of the telephone line. It’s been 19 minutes of endlessly repeating crappy hold music from my speakerphone and I’ve yet to talk to anyone. So three emails written, four pages of proofreading and I still have time to start this editorial. Twenty-four minutes now and the inane music is really starting to hinder my concentration and ability to make this a witty, pithy put down.

Thirty minutes, enough already, still on hold! I’d rather be locked in a closet and forced to listen to Kenny G for 24 hours than take any more of this awful tune. And still no sign or sound of any service. A quick video of the office phone to show the 30 minutes of life I’ll never get back.

It’s up on youtube – not my best camera work ever, but I’m sure that anyone who is so bored and wants to wastes precious minutes of their life to watch it will recognize the music – maybe they have an award for the most completely worthless video. I’ll dedicate it to PCCW if I win.

And that’s really that, so much is going on around the territory this month that I honestly want to spend as little time as possible stuck behind a desk. So grab this issue and go out and enjoy the smorgasbord of great entertainment waiting just for you.
