As always, Karrinyup shoppers were blissfully unaware of the Telstra network outage today as they went about their usual days perusing goods in Perth’s most famous faraday cage.
We spoke to a shopper who said she only learned about the clusterfuck after emerging from the depths of the shopping centre, adding,
“Oh, was it a major national outage or just another day at Karrinyup? To be honest, I would’ve had no way of knowing. I just thought the Karrinyup reception curse had just expanded to cover the entire suburb now, wasn’t until I got home did I realise maybe something was wrong”
Another shopper said he actually did find out about the outage while in Karrinyup but only because his wife’s well trained homing pigeon was able to get word to him as well as a reminder to pick up some mince for tonight’s spag bog. He told The Times,
“As regular Karrinyup shoppers we have learned to work around certain issues, this is Mr Flappy and he’s proven far more reliable than any network provider when it comes to Karrinyup. I’d piss this shopping centre off but I just love layering myself with generous lashings of expensive cologne from Sephora so this is the work around”
Well, there you have it.
