The 25th.
5 days till money.
Welcome to the soapbox. Yes, reader, unfortunately, things have been so crappy this week that the journal has turned into a makeshift soapbox. sorry about that. Hopefully it'll get better and I'll stop having things to bitch about.
So the subject for today's bitching. BANK-FUCKING-ONE.
Situation: I'm trying to order something with my Bank one-check card-Psudeo Visa. convenient?? What the hell?? I moved a while back and never changed my address. Unfortunately the person I ordered from can only ship to the billing address on the Bank-one visa card. (damn). so I called bank one to get my address changed. No problem, right?? just update the files! I had to tell them my 1. Acct #, 2. My name, 3. My date of last deposit 4. my amount of last deposit just to prove i'm me. So they KNOW i'm me. They update the files, and I call the girl at the mail order place back. She tries again for me. No go. Files not updated. (this was on WEDNESDAY) I said, give them a day. Called them back thursday. NO GO. Finally today called the bank back. Was very nice, asked them to check and see if it had been changed. NOPE. I don't know WHAT THE FUCK the girl did on wednesday, but it didn't do what I wanted. So I had her change it again. Another 24 hours. Gee, fun. this is all for an item i'm ordering that's in demand. So when my order should have been processed tuesday, it's now friday, and i'm 4 days farther down the list. It'll probably be a damn month before I get it. I am unhappy, reader. Why can't anyone just do their damn job right??
If this doesn't get resolved, soon you'll see a new section, BOYCOTT BANK ONE. And I'll be banking at a new company.
Besides that, everything seems pretty cool. Got my work for today done, (90 pages of database crap!) but it wasn't that bad. tonight should be pretty cool, going to see "Urban Legend", should be fun.
Well, that's all for now reader. Report on urban legend and the bank one shit tommorow.
Your host,

P.s. tom is my happy friend.
