I still can't believe how dumb I was. I finally earned my dream task and all I needed to do was pack up my things and move from my family's home in Macon, Georgia, to my brand-new house in Mountain View, California. Read on as I relay my tale of problem, keeping in mind that all of my wounds were self-inflicted. Hopefully, you'll discover from my many mistakes.
Cellular Regret
My errors started prior to I ever left Georgia. I prepared all stages of my job transfer by investigating the finest moving business. I would've saved myself a lot of irritation if just I had actually taken the time to upgrade my forwarding address at the very same time. You'll understand why in just a moment. After I got all of my things boxed up and left Georgia for excellent, the relocation itself was easy. My movers handled all the details. All I had to do was get in my cars and truck and drive west. A buddy made the drive with me, since he 'd never ever checked out California. We took turns behind the wheel. When I wasn't driving, I killed time on my cellular phone, texting and binge-watching television shows. Only later did I realize the mistake I 'd made. I hadn't upgraded my cellular phone agreement to show my new residence. During the cross-country trip, I sustained numerous dollars in roaming costs for a costs that normally costs $75. Please don't tell my new job how bad I am at mathematics.
Stuck in the '90s
There was another huge issue as soon as we arrived at the new place. I hadn't remembered to turn on the power at my new home. My pal and I had to lease a space at a prolonged stay hotel the very first couple of nights till the power company arrived. Without power, I also had no chance to know that I 'd forgotten something else important. I hadn't connected my cable and Internet website services, either. Let me simply state that going several days without Internet made me feel like I was trapped in the early 1990s. I felt like getting something pierced and then watching a Nirvana concert. Even when I finally had power at my home, I had no method to surf the web without using my cell phone. This is a great time to remind you that I still didn't know my cell phone service wasn't updated. I got hit with California roaming charges the whole time I was waiting on the mystical appearance of the cable man.
The Fuzz
Simply since I got a new job does not suggest I'm made of cash. I'm going to have to pay more up until I buy a new cars and truck. Given that I didn't do this, I had to invest a number of days at a dive motel, got mocked mercilessly by my buddy, and lost a lot of money I might've invested on brand-new furniture for my new house phone.
