Wow, for some reason, I really hate people today. ^^;;; Scary.

So here's a sob story I think I forgot to mention last week, and I was reminded of it just now, so:

My dad and I have been planning out Christmas break, so he could get a decent rate on plane tickets to fly me home before they all sold out. He reserved a flight for me over the phone, and it was all set up, but they had to mail him a paper ticket b/c he couldn't get an e-ticket.

So he gets the tickets like 2 weeks later, and they say NOVEMBER 21-29, when it's supposed to be DECEMBER! And my dad knows he told them the right month, because he had the Christmas blackout dates written down on his desk from when he was on the phone with them! And of course, they couldn't exchange it for the proper flight because all the flights were now booked, so they just refunded his money, and basically the retard travel agent cost us 2 weeks of looking for a ticket.

SO, the only way we could get an affordable ticket was for me to fly out at 6:30am!! ::dies:: OMG TRAVEL AGENT MUST DIE! ::roasdlfasdlfaskh::

JSO meeting in half an hour. I hope it's more fun than the rest of today has been. I'm kind of ready to just call today a wash and go home and sleep. Tomorrow is another day.

And whoever keeps taking pictures and blinding me with their fscking flash is going to DIE. >:D

EDIT: Oh my freakin' god, I WANT THIS MOVIE!! God, that makes GUITAR WOLF even cooler! XD

How odd...

I just last week heard about essentially the exact same thing happening to someone else. but it was November instead of October, and the tickets were for a couple going to the caribbean for their wedding. I will never use a travel agent again (not that I have in the past) - hooray for online travel-booking sites!

travel agents suck... and they rarely get things cheaper than what we can get on our own now.

they are a dying middle-man in the direct economy that's emerging. things might get scary when they're gone though. so long as we keep competition though prices should be "sane"...
