Inefficiency

What da….We have no water for 18 hours! I really loathe Davao City Water District for the inefficient means of information dissemination. Oh well, I was never impressed with their services ever since I stayed here in Davao. Frequent repairs, replacements, etc., etc. Why install pipes, valves and others that aren’t durable in the first place? Gosh, they really suck big time! Water interruption for an hour or two is just okay. But for 18 hours, it’s a different story especially that they have not utilized all means to disseminate the information to ALL concessionaires.

I don’t mean to be rude but I must admit, I was never a happy customer of DCWD in terms of their services. The quality of their water is good but services is so poor. When we are still living somewhere in north where water interruption lasts for days up to a week numerous times in a year and when I called them to know the reason of the interruption, “the pump broke”. Pump being broken countless times in a year? That’s ridiculous! Why not install a pump that is of HIGH QUALITY and implement PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE from time to time? Poor planning and implementation. If this kind of service will continue, I might need a treatment for hair loss soon because they never fail to stress me out and that stress will cause hair fall in the long run.

I think DCWD is adapting to the government’s motto: SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE, THIS IS WHERE YOUR TAXES GO.

    Man, that would suck! We’ve never been without water… We’re on well water now, but we were on city water when we lived in Portland…. But still, we’ve never been without, thank goodness!
