So…it’s payday. Having managed to cut down on bills real nice, I wake up fresh and early ready for the new day, and say good-morning to Brandy (roomie’s girl) look for coffee…we have none…thats okay…I have the day off…I’m totally on cloud nine ya know?

So of course…I sit down in front of the computer…need to make sure. my bill are getting paid.

Now about Tony, I am hardly rich. I make decent money, but unfortunately it’s ME and my spending habits are horrible. Do I have savings? Sure. Do I have a checking account? Same place for over 5 years. Do I balance my books…heh riiiight. I make sure my bills get paid on time…I’m not looking for miracles here. Anyhow, so I logged into my bank account to find that I had yet again gone over. It happens with me. I’ll be the first to admit it, but then I notice the dating and timeline. These guys are insane.

DirecTV decided I had canceled my service and not only failed to notify me, they failed to send the return boxes for the equipment, and so decided they would not only bill my back account for early termination, but also for 3 receivers.

Oi.

So my cable account has been credited out the yingyang….and poor me gets to sit around for a couple weeks because all his spending money for the next couple weeks just went to the rent.

Yeah I know…waaaaaah. I jsut neeed to vent.

Ciao

It’s been a harrowing week to say the least.

I got about a week’s notice that I would be flying out to HQ for a week with another staff member and a few of our management staff.

While we were technically in training, we were also subject to some presentations on new development within our scope etc etc.

I finally got to put a face and personality to all these names. That was fun.

Everyone in the office thought I was on some sort of vacation. *WRONG!* soo.sooo..wrong.

In the end…I learned lots:

*Never ever fly to or from Atlanta willingly during extreme weather conditions…they are constantly shutting down flights.
*Sometimes alcohol actually can get you through being horribly sick.
*What happens on business trips, stays on business trips.
*My management staff are much much cooler cats than i thought 😉
