I'd like to think that I am a person who rarely complains... so therefore that is how I am justifying this post... :)
Our power situation for the last month has been consistently inconsistent. For example, here is the usual power schedule:
Monday-Friday : 6am to Midnight
Saturday-Sunday: 6 am to noon, 5:30pm- midnight.
This is what it HAS been:
Monday-Friday: 6 am- 7am.... 7:50am- 10. 6pm-7:00pm...... 8:40-10:10.... 10:35- midnight
Saturday- Sunday: non-existent.
i'm sorry, but its starting to get OLD. FAST. the situation? people don't pay their rent, thus the organization who gives us power, has no money to buy fuel. Even though we are the ones who consistently pay our bills on time.
Do you know how hard it is to get ANY work done when you have no consistent power, to power your computer, much less your INTERNET? and speaking of internet, that has been pretty unreliable lately too... there could be a single cloud in they sky to interrupt the signal... remember the days where you had to wait 30 minutes for ONE PAGE TO OPEN??? yah... welcome to Liberia. (believe it or not i am not exaggerating on the 30 min-)
Don't get me wrong, I love Liberia, and yes, I choose to be here. I just wanted to take this opportunity to vent some recent frustrations I am having.... as I try and get into my email account for the 15th time tonight....
so as you read this on your super speedy internet connection back home.... and enjoy that AC at 2 am... ENJOY IT FOR ME. Thanks :)
