The internet our here in the boondocks is AWFUL. And this is technically considered to be Melbourne as well. I know bad internet in Australia is basically a meme at this point, but…it’s just awful, it really is. I just can’t fathom why people let it go.
Ironically, I’m just trying to escape this place. I just want a nice house somewhere in a suburban area, and I don’t even mind if the garden is smaller if the internet is faster. At this point, I feel like I’m going to have to hire a buyers advocate. Melbourne CBD has to have decent internet, but the properties are fairly pricey…hence the advocate. I don’t even mind.
Actually, that may be a route to consider. I’m working most of the day, the I come home to Keymore, the famed internet dead zone. Oh, people think the whole place is haunted? Haunted by a mysterious Wi-Fi eating ghost, maybe. I’m trying to view properties, but viewing properties means loading pictures- preferably HD pictures- and that’s just not happening at the moment. How nice would it be to just get someone to do all that business for you? I could just go to work, then on the weekend or maybe my lunch break I could go to a meeting where I’m shown a lot of HD pictures. And I wouldn’t even have to do any legwork! Maybe there would also be mints?
Alright, so I’m not totally sure what happens if you seek out a buyers advocate in Melbourne, but it must be better than staving off bedtime, prying my eyelids open while I wait fifteen minutes for my internet to load a single home. And then I find out there’s no en suite. Gah!
