Eskom saved me R40 000 yesterday

Believe it. It's true.I received a call on dodgy line yesterday at work. From an agency handling some paraphernalia production for me. I thought I heard 500 in total. What I had agreed to was 500 per promotion. This would have worked out to a whopping total of R40 000.That is well, well, well over what I had budgeted for and well over what we could afford ever.An hour later I frantically realised the error of my decision. Running around the office back to my desk, sliding in to my chair I made the call to the agency.The lady on the other side of the call sounded slightly flustered by a bit happy that I had caught her in time.What had happened? Eskom had magically saved me R40 000. The power went out two minutes before I called to change the order and the agency was unable to send of the order via email.For the first time ever I have to say: Thanks Eskom.
