Got Fox?
Posted in Blogging by Lori on July 26th, 2005

I’ve lived in homes where a strata company has looked after the units, how they look, what gets installed etc etc. Including installation of FoxTel. Something I haven’t used since I can’t afford it, and no one here wants it.. or do they? ….

Lori, [hmmm, no Dear Lori]

The strata company have contacted our office as there is a foxtel dish installed on the common roof that is hooked up for foxtel into your unit. [There is? I had no idea]

The strata company has advised that this dish needs to be removed immediately. [That's nice, who does it belong to? why are you asking me?]

Can you please contact our office [OK]

Thanks Tracey

So… I rang them.

Seems as though according to Tracey I have arranged to have a foxtel satellite dish installed on the roof of my upstairs MrCreep and he has complained about me to the Strata company. He didn’t think to ask me. Asshat. I think I said he was a prick.

Tracey said well, the strata company had asked foxtel and they had said the wiring goes to my unit. I sat there and said.. and when was this installed? Are you sure it’s my flat? I can’t afford foxtel, where would I have it installed? Where’s the dish? and eventually she said.. “it’s not yours is it?” and I’m like HELLO THERE FINALLY. “no it’s not, try the couple downstairs”

So I emailed a reply back to her..

Hi Tracey

As I have advised you when we spoke not too long ago, I have not ordered Foxtel.

I have lived in strata managed units for over 6 years and know the rules about installing satellite dishes for any purpose, needs to be checked with the strata company first.

Regards

Lori

Ok so the strata company got it wrong. How about they fix the leak in my ceiling, and the window that doesn’t shut properly? Asshats.

      It is so much easier for the strata company to do something when it comes from a complaint and won’t cost them any money. It’s just a job to them and you are just a number, a number that pays a great deal of money for the privilege (Damn, had to look up the spelling. Computers make you dumb).

      Just cut the cable that runs into your place. You’ll soon find out who installed it.

      Well there’s the thing, I can’t find the wiring. So if i COULD I would, so they will have to investigate it a little better than they have.

      I spoke to MrCreep last night - he was outraged at the loud music. I still think it’s creepy that he’s here by himself with his wife still overseas…
