#ulog 17 - Blackout Breakfast

in #ulog6 years ago (edited)

Happy Saturday Peeps

Me here, back at it with the Ulogs like I'm Damn Daniel and naturally It's for absolutely no good reason lol. I woke up this morning and booted up my PS4 and an hour in the electricity shut down. Way to kill my vibe Eskom, you see incompetent thieves run our national electricity supplier and now we have to suffer.

Load Shedding

In South Africa, we're currently going through a system called load shedding where our national power supply is limited this time due to not enough coal/quality coal or rather that is the bullshit they feed us. It's actually due to shitty deals they did greasing peoples palms and buying in sub-standard coal while lining the pockets of everyone involved, but that's beside the point.

In order to keep the country from a national blackout, certain areas of the country are switched off for a few hours to conserve electricity and keep consumption to a certain limit per day. You can read more about our stage 1 load shedding here

We're all given a schedule on when our electricity will be turned off and for how long but really no one gives a shit to keep note of it and we're often caught off guard because FFS if i pay for my electricity I expect to be able to use it at any time

Making a meal of it

So since I had nothing better to do, I decided to take my breakfast making outside and do it camping syle because, why the hell not right?

A cup of tea would be nice

To wash it all down I decided to make a cup of tea, coz I ain't playing around with my breakfast and I had tons of time to kill before the electricity comes back on.

Now I'm off for a run to try and work off this meal and hopefully when I get back I'll be out of the stone age once again. This is my captains ULOG signing off, from deepest darkest Africa.

Have at it
