Is anyone else out there thoroughly pissed off with the muppets employed in the MOD operator service?
Let me give you an example, I phoned the operator to request the contact number for the Officers' Mess HQ RLC TA based in Grantham. Simple enough you might think, not a bit of it! Firstly the operator ask me in an unintelligible Scottish drawl what RLC stood for, fair enough, I explained it to him. then he asked me what TA stood for, are you serious.
After 5 mins of getting no where I ask for any number in Grantham, confident that they would be able to help. He kindly gave me the number of a chief clerk somewhere in Grantham, then connected me. The number was engaged, so I asked for another random number. Wait for it, this is the best bit.
He could connect me to the second number but could not tell me what it was!!!!! nor would he, instead he spent longer telling me why he was only allowed to give one number than he would have done F**king telling me the number!!.
