Going insane!

Yes, that's what I feel like today given the chain of events. Here's a glimpse:

Monday: Booked 6 computer tables for the office on Monday. Was told that they will be delivered the next day.

Tuesday came and went, no tables.

On Wednesday there was a murder in the shop locality. No tables again. That evening I go hunting along with mom to other shops for an alternative. We travel about 20 kms without any luck. Came back home totally pooped.

Thursday we planned to try other shops but couldn't go. We were told that the electrician would visit the office that day. Anyways he turned up only in the evening.

Today (Friday) I called the furniture dealer and cancelled my tables order.

Tomorrow (Saturday) we plan to go again to other shops.....have to go!

Coming back to Wednesday, we spoke to the electrician and he promised to come the next day and look at the office premises to figure out how much work needs to be done and what material we need to buy.

Thursday evening he comes at about 7:30 pm and has a look at the place. Promises to start work next morning at 9:30.

Next morning (same Friday mentioned before) he comes late at about 11:45 am. Gives me the list of material and says he'll be back in an hour by the time I'm back from the shopping. My dad acompanies me to the electrical shop and we buy everything, I drop dad back home and I go to office. I call the electrician and he cooly says he'll come tomorrow!

I throw a fit!!!! The guy who will fix the UPS came and left. The computer engineer came and left. Both wanted to give the electrician some instructions before he starts work. I ask both of them to return the next morning. I had chosen this guy over others and he wants to play truant now! I call another electrician as a backup, just in case. The fact that I need to get the place up and running by Monday is another thing! The fact that now I barely have 3 days to get all these guys to finish their jobs...THAT'S another thing!

Back to the electrician, he finally reaches in the evening at about 5 pm and starts his work. I heave a sigh of relief and let him do how much ever he can for the evening. Finally I close shop and go home at 8:45pm. He promises to be back tomorrow morning by 9:30. Let's see. I'm keeping my fingers and toes crossed!
