Information - NOT!!!

Tonight I did something I don't do - I called 411 from my cell phone while driving.
I was looking to make some tee times at the City Club of Marietta for this weekend. The first operator told me they could find no listing and transferred me to the problem solving line. 2nd operator asked "City Club of Mariettta?" Yes. What about Marietta City Club? Whatever, I say. Sorry sir we have no listing. WHHHAAAATTT??? I have played golf there 8 times. I say "Excuse me ma'am, if you do a Google search it will come right up, could you give me their number, I am driving."
BITCH responds "I'm sorry sir, this is Information NOT the Internet."
"Ummm, I hear you typing on a computer, can't you Google City Club of Marietta."
"No sir, this is information, not the internet"
"Ummm Obviously not, do you suggest I wait until I get in front of my own computer to find the number?"
One word anser.
"YES"
And the fucking bitch hung up on me.....
Holy Shit... What a cuntrag!!!
Guess what - I Google - City Club of Marietta and I go right to their website.
What a fucking bitch. I woulda called back to complain but that would have cost me another $1.49 and I would have spoken to another incompetent asshole.
Tomorrow I may call Cingular or the lowercase "att" and complain and spend 45 minutes on the phone to get the $`1.40 charge taken off. OR, I might just go outside and catch a $20 bill on fire and watch it burn - that would give me more pleasure in a short amount of time than going thru all the menu's to talk to someone who will say "Well this is att wireless and you were talking to att information and we cannot be responsible for another att department." My brain might explode since I spent 8 years in the orgainization...
I also need to complain that my automatic download text messages of the Clemson football scores are coming thru 4 times per quarter. That works out fine when we win 70-14 but when we lose to the North Avenue Trade School, or the Virginia Dorks that survived the massacre, it really sucks. Those $0.10's are adding up...

hi. i was just randomly cruising through blogs, as i am new to this crap. i thought this post was pretty funny, but i do have a solution for you.

it's especially awesome if you have unlimited texting with AT&T, like me...

text the listing name with city and state to 46645. it texts you back immediately (and i mean IMMEDIATELY) with the address and phone number. best part is, the phone number pops up as "linked", and as soon as you're on top of it, you can select "call"... again, free of charge.
