Some people are just plain a55h4ts, I just had a customer abuse me because his order wont be arriving until next Tuesday because its stuck in floodwater. I am sooo pissed off with him I never want to deal with him again.

When I ran the Adelaide Gerni Service department I became a master of defusing disgruntled customers.
This kind of flooding isn't anything we haven't seen before, and it's highly probable we'll see it again.
People just forget after a while and get caught off guard.
Anyone who's been in the Alice when it's rained up river can testify to that fact.

I've seen that, the todd river just all of a sudden starts to flow and all the people that live on the riverbed have to climb trees.

The other must see experience in Alice used to be had sitting on the bench opposite the Commonwealth Bank every second Thursday... Not so much these days but 10+ years ago it was a blast.
