Bugger, the cash machine's not working.
That's not convenient in this coronavirus era, when we are all urged to pay wirelessly as much as possible.
Fortunately, we have a service subscription with the company with the great slogan: Let's get this payment sorted.!
What a cringeworthy slogan. I imagine a marketing agency tasked with coming up with a catchy slogan for a payment terminal company. Of course, that's never going to work. Paying is just not fun, I'd rather receive money.
But the marketing agency isn't fazed. Yes! Let's pretend a payment is an experience, an event! Let's get this payment sorted!
The payments weren't playing ball at our office, so we ended up ordering a mechanic.
A grumpy man walks in and goes straight to our card machine. That's a good start.
He starts pressing all sorts of buttons, and a report comes out of the machine. With bated breath, I await his commentary. What could be wrong with our payment machine?
The mechanic says nothing.
The phone is ringing.
I am taking a call, and I'm being held up for a moment. It's a lady who has never hired a bus before and has no idea how big the bus she needs should be. I'm asking what items she needs to transport.
In the middle of my phone call, the ATM engineer lets out a huge fart.
The lady who called us heard it too, I think.
I'm roaring with laughter.
Laughing, I say to the lady on the phone: I know a great slogan for a payment machine company! Let's make farting happen! (farting = to let out a fart)
The poor lady doesn't understand it at all.
And the mechanic? He's just pretending nothing's wrong. Dirty vending machine man.
I'm opening a few doors in the office and will let the snoring automaton carry on for a bit.
The good news is that the payment terminal is working again!
So if you a car or delivery van Upon renting, you can pay your deposit with a debit card without any problems. Which is so convenient if you have a van hire in the Born area Want to rent!
Let's make farting happen!
(Preferably not at our office when I'm there)
