Major grummpages.

People who don't use their effing turn signals at the bottom of Quaker Hill,people who don't look to see if there's somebody in the crosswalk at Stop&Rob and last of all banks who send out late notices on car payments while I'm holding the already cashed check that came in with my statement!!!

RAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


All this within one hour.

It doesn't bother me so much since almost all my banking is online and automated, but even just a few years back I remember when bills arrived in the mail the due date was several weeks away.

These days, it seems when a bill arrives the due date is only a week or a few days more away. You have to almost immediately get a check in the mail just to get it there in time.

And FU to those who don't use turn signals.

Comcast?
They do that to me.

And turn signals?

Just keep in mind what part of the US you are in.

And whatever you do, don't ever accidentally flip the bird to any State Police that happen to be tailgating you.
No matter what.
Trust me.

Just big delays in the processing schedules...

Thank god for online payments. Most CC companies will let you do a same day transaction, for nothing or a small fee.

This saved my hide just the other day. Found a no interest for 24 months bill with over a grand left on it the day it was due!

Spence the wife wont let them take it from the Visa card. The only thing that I use that for on line is the AOL bill. The school loan actually does have a one month discrepency which in the end I believe I am going to have to eat. We'll see though.

I pay all my bills online but my car loan is financed thru People's while all my other banking is done thru Citizens so I've been mailing checks.

But I just remedied that.Now that humans are no longer involved problem is solved.I'm a freakin poet!
