Irritatingly, another one arrived today. I have just finished glancing through the first one of the year and put it in file thirteen, (the paper bin).
I feel utterly ungrateful, but I also feel mightily annoyed at being made to feel so, through no doings of my own. I have had the misfortune to be gifted a one year subscription to a magazine I have absolutely no interest in. Along with the gift came a pile of new style spam mail, some which thanked me for my enquiries about products and services I have never had the slightest bit of desire to have and have never, never enquired about.
What is even worse, is the sharp practice of leaving it to the recipient of the magazine to make contact with the company to opt out of their avalanche of spam mail. "We don't pass your details on to anyone outside our organisation", I was told, as if that was comforting. CHEEK!
You can be assured, I will not be subscribing anyone else to this excruciating performance with its ghastly twelve monthly reminders. A horrible thought has just occurred to me, maybe, I'll get landed with an extra month, a freebie, in the hope I'll renew the subscription. Not on your life!
