Also known as 'Telecon'.
The main telecommunications business in New Zealand.
They dominate the phone lines and force everybody else to use ridiculously slow internet speeds because they can't be bothered unbundling some cables.
Often ridiculed for their horrible impact on NZs' internet speed and their blocky, unimaginative logo.
Hated for making the song "Come Together" by the Beatles a national taboo.

Get the Telecomuniphobia mug.The ability to find yourself fully surrounded by incompetent idiots while working from the comfort of your own home.
I may be working in my pj's, but through the magic of telecommuting, I'm still stuck dealing with these morons all day.

Get the telecommuting mug.The statistically anomalous tendency for the telephone to ring while you are having a shit. Extensive studies have shown that the phone of any individual has, at any given time, a 500% higher chance of ringing while its owner is evacuating his/her bowels than during other common everyday tasks such as masturbation, hoovering and chimping. Some schools of thought consider telecoprolism to be a subset of the Sod's Law principle. The others don't really consider such issues to be a worthy use of academic time and resources.
I was just settling down for my morning log and got telecoprolised by the bank again. Bloody telecoprolism, eh?
