Internet and phone dies #firstworldproblem

The internet AND phone decided to die and with it finally up and running after hours on the phone to providers Internode and Telstra, some bright spark cut the wrong cable at the exchange 1.7km away from Media Muncher headquarters.

Turns out I'm not alone, 17,000 Adelaidians are having the frustrating #firstworldproblem of not having the internet and phone because of 'bad weather in May.' What? I don't remember that ever happening. My case must be a coincidence.

But if you've never lost your connections, it's such a strange feeling being cut off from the web it's like you have to be extra creative thinking how you'll pass the time - nevermind most of us have grown up playing without the net.

After waiting in queue several times with Internode do you know what? Now my phone can't dial out, oh dear... here we go again.
