I don't really have all that much to say apart from tonight I am packing up the office tonight once everyone has left and the movers will come in at 7:30 am to move me.
You would not believe the price gouge that I have endured for this move just because it's the week before Christmas. I started calling removalists this morning and most were too busy this week to do the move.
The two that were interested both were difficult to pin down but in the end I got one to agree and agree to a price of $150 for the move. $100 for the hour and $50 call out fee, pretty steep nonetheless but not too bad.
But then this afternoon when the guy rang to confirm he then told me there was a two hour minimum call out. So a total cost of $250 for the move!
What a bloody rip off!
But the guy knew I had to move this week and I was between a rock and a hard place so I have to accept the cost.
Mind you it means the move will hopefully be done before anyone gets into the office tomorrow so I can be all out and moved without having to make up any false platitudes or lie to anyone as to why I am moving.
I am not an effective liar face to face which means that if one of the others in the office asked me why I was moving I would not be able to spin a story and I may have ended up being nasty and rude which is not called for.
