During my unemployed period earlier this year, I spent alot of time watching tv like any good unemployed person would do. And one of the perks I got out of that was being able to get tickets to the Conan O'Brien 10th Anniversary show taping.
They had asked viewers to email in ticket requests to a particular email address a coupla months ago and those chosen would receive a confirmation email. So I was quite excited when I received the confirmation email a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, I LOST the email last week due to a freak Mail mishap that wiped out my inbox. So I called the NBC ticket office on Tuesday to make sure if it was ok that I didn't have a printout of the confirmation email. The guy I spoke with said it was fine. However, I called them again today to double-check once more and the woman I spoke with pretty much said I was SOL. To say that I'm annoyed would be the understatement of the year. *sigh* Guess I'll have to wait for his 15th Anniversary show. So what'd I learn in this debacle?
- Don't create two accounts with the same email address in Mail.
- If anything needs to be printed out, print it out as soon as possible.
- Never reconfirm anything at the last minute. Do it at least a day before.
