I used to work at Telkom. People used to say I worked for the devil.
Current client is SARS. Now I just get different jokes

Lol

Everytime there is a power failure everyone I know phones me to ask what's going on...

Do you also get the questions like: "Oh, my uncle's son also works there, perhaps you know him? He does something with computers. I think he is at the office in Pretoria".

Some many things wrong with this. At Telkom, everyone uses computers. There are MANY offices in Pretoria and back then, we were 25 000 employees. Over 10 000 just at Head Office. There is no chance of me knowing them.

Jip there are about 35 000 employees at Eskom.

Even my husband (bless his soul) was working on set with some important Eskom manager. They started chatting and he asked the guy if he knew me

P.S. I can get into National Control where they switch the power on and off.... so be nice to me
