  • Administration tasks that involve paper and online forms are near the top of my procrastination pile—well they are on the top because they are the thing that usually needs priority, yet they get pushed to the bottom as I reach for an ‘easier’ task to do first. 

    I can ‘hear’ your annoyance and frustration at being sent from one place to another because the email address wasn’t functioning. It’s not your fault that the system has been badly implemented but you have done all you can. 

    I always wonder how others manage when councils/governments make it impossible for people to follow instructions.

    Mine too, I had a hissy fit trying to fill in a form for new car insurance and shut the whole thing down, I think I perfer paying more to stay with my existing insurers than have the hassle of filling in forms. In this case it was filling it in, then getting bounced back to a page that hadn't previously come up.

    I've had that thing before too of emailing somebody only for the email address to to turn out to be the wrong one and phone numbers too. I've often wondered how others manage to navigate all this nonsense, I'm fed up of being told it works fine for everybody else, I don't believe them, I think they lie and deliberately too, maybe not the person you end up on the phone with, but certainly the people who send out emails.
