I am inclined to believe that patience stands a very good chance of being categorised as being intangible. One therefore endeavours to employ the term in a descriptory manner not unalike electrical switches. Either you are patient or you are not. Perhaps some leeway is present which manifests itself in the form of you being "alittle" patient or being not really that patient. But seriously don't ask me on what patient-o-meter can be utilised for such weird middling situations.
As you might have so learnt, i have taken upon myself to being a maverick and deviate from the beaten path. Why for goodness' sake, i have hop onto the M1 broadband bandwagon. Unknown service track record, non-existent reliability standards and definitely anyone's guess on how the service will turn out to be.
I signed away 2 years of my life being a contractual slave of M1 and have to date, have been resigned (what a wonderful pun) to a wonderful 2 weeks of downtime and counting still. The service provider in this case has had the unfortunate need to rely upon its rival's DSL infrastructure so as to deliver the goods. And yet i have yet to taste or let alone smell nary a single data packet. What a shame.
2 weeks of my life has been in vain... I beseech you, the guardians of Grammar, that patience is to be considered as a tangible noun my excellencies! For i have a fortnight's supply of patience and i am afraid it is soon running out. And may the Almight blast the iPhone. The wretched work of the devil has so nicely interfered with my means to contact M1 customer support (which is in danger of becoming a learned reflex)
*Dial 1627 1 2 4 *Please hold while we connect you to our customer service officers.
And i am so dismayed that a avalanche of calls (purportedly from iPhone zealots) has gotten in my way. Begone you fools!
And M1 and Singtel!, bring me my data packets!
