    fuck so worked.. went to Melbourne for a short getaway.. was meant to be Friday night to Monday afternoon.

    boss tells me he booked me for a job Monday (even tho he never confirmed) so I had to fly back early leave wife and kids there.

    7:15am flight need to wake up at 5am to get there on time..

    12:50am I get a call from Jetstar telling they have cancelled my flight. as the text woke me up, I was able to rebook on the 6:10am flight.. which meant leaving at 4:30am..

    book uber for pickup and get 3 hours of very broken sleep..

    4:30 comes, no uber, check app, no uber, refresh at, all of a sudden booking vanished only to be replaced with options that were literally double the price..

    get to airport, they try and tell me I requested a refund and not a rebook, even though I took a screenshot after I rebooked..

    20 minutes of back and fourth, finally they get me on the flight..

    like seriously.

    who the fuck cancels at 7am flight at 1am ..

    cunts.. that's who.

    obviously Jetstar is basically garbage anyway, but still.. new levels of fuckery

    anyway, here I am, warmed up dog vomit trying to keep my eyes open long enough

    • What Slash said. "Yes, I am back on Monday, but not until the Afternoon, sorry." should've been the reply ;)microkorg
