Things you only realise if you're at home all day

This is the first entry in a series. My blog has been littered with clips I've found interesting in the past. This makes me a terrible blogger. Blogs don't exist purely to build entertainment sources for the easily distracted; they are vital sources of information for journalists, critics, reviewers and all sorts of companies that drive industry. Blogs need written content added regularly on one particular subject for all. It is these that can fuel the internet and it is these that expose fault lines, flaws, corruption and all that's wrong with the world.


I digress and will write more to help my blog and my website grow. I'm not aiming for high litereature. In fact I'm not even aiming for low literature. I'm just doing it because I have itches that need scratching.


Incoming Telephone calls:


No.1 Contrary to popular belief the days when absorbing telephone calls on the land line are long gone. They have instead been replaced by an army of robot dialling machines that spend all day dialling landline numbers to hassle people to buy stuff. What Stuff You wonder? well apparently all that exists in the world of the Process driven dialling machine is only 2 types of debt consolidation packages:


The first one comes from the banks. Banks can apparently do more rather than just hold your money, they can also offer a beweldering array of finance options to the unwitting home dweller. A mere bank account is looked upon with scorn by the average bank these days. Rejected as being old fashioned todays bank has accounts embelished with special offers, savings, discounts, money off vouchers and that's just accounts! Factor into the equation finance options, mortgages and god knows what ever things they can do to drive you insane and you soon find that banks are now so much more than just accounts, they have become another source of irriation.




Caller number 2 is a debt consolidation company. It is what it is only marginally less irritating than a bank because at least there's somebody there who only has a few things to sell. Banks can drag on for hours,


Caller number 3 is actually no one of the robots but a prompt to dial your number but when the recorded messages have been exhausted. You're distracted from your vitally important day work by the phone only to find that the announcements have run out and all you hear is a blank ghostly silence. And it's not the kind of silence that is followed up by a friendly customer service bozo after a bit of saying 'hello?' it's the kind of silence that never results in a service you might be insteresed in because while seomebody has set up enough of a system to call your number it's not actaully advanced enough to have a default 'sorry we're fresh out of things to say' message. You get nothing,
