China Syndrome

So, I'm moving next week. I'm in the bloody mess of a job search. Can anything go right this month?

I called Verizon a couple of days ago....wait, actually I called them about a week ago and asked them if I could move my service to the new apartment. Through the whole 20 minute conversation we (me and the service rep) determine that it would be better for me to call the local rep and ask about service. Needless to say, the apartment address wouldn't show up on their records...at all! Fast forward about a week (2 days ago) and I call the guy to ask him about service in that area. He doesn't rightly know off hand and decides to call another man with Verizon to determine what the situation is. He says he'll call me right back. Wrong turn number one, he never calls back and it has been 2 days. He will either get a call tomorrow (pending on other things that will be mentioned later) or an email tonight. So I imagine that by the time I get this all fixed up I will have to sit around without media services for about 2 weeks... And that will go down very well.

Then I start to realize that something is up. I just got off the phone with the electric/water company. I need to turn the services on before the 11th and what not, I don't know. I tell the lady my new address (after being on hold for about 10 minutes) and she tells me that the address doesn't exist in their records. I'm spechless by now... I tell her that I'm going to have to get to the bottom of this and figure out just what is going on here. Which leads me to present time.

I'm starting to think that I'm going to need to contact the new apartment office and just ask them how the hell am I suppose to turn these services on?! A simple phone call will not suffice, so this must be a personal meeting at their office. I'm not going to savagely murder them (mentally) and demand that something be done. I just want to know, what the hell am I suppose to do?...

The pin mishap has technically been fixed. No one has contacted me since I fixed everything. In the mean time I have technically been offered a job as a service lot attendant at a car dealership. A lot more hours, a lot less pay - compared to the retail job. I'm also trying to gun for other jobs as well. Someones heart is going to get broken in the end. But, that's what all these fucking businesses get for fucking around and not hiring me right away and not paying me a lot and being complete jerks. Oh, and heads are going to roll.
