Guess who’s driveway is the one with all the ice that has yet to melt on an incline? Well, at least it’s not like I’m missing work because of it; there’s nobody at the office today, so it’s not like I could go there, and log hours in an empty office. But man, this really sucks that this is currently three days in which I haven’t been getting paid. I fear I might have to dip into my savings yet again to supplement some of my upcoming bills.
In other news, Capital One sucks. Given my recent financial woes, I’m forced to lean on a credit card to get my car fixed, and just to get some breathing room, I figured it would be a good time to increase my limit; I was denied over the phone, with no definitive answer, and was promised one in the upcoming letter, ten business days later. The letter arrived, and gave me the same lack of definitive answer. My only theory is that I’m a “bad” customer, because my card up until recently, has been responsibly paid, zeroed out, and I’m not a frivolous spender who can easily be “trapped” into debt. Either way, this morning, a courtesy call came from Capital One, asking if I was happy with them, to which I literally laughed at the phone, and told him my plight. The phone representative made absolutely no effort to retain my business when I basically told them that as soon as I find another appealing offer, that I am transferring my remaining balance, and future money elsewhere. I guess they don’t want customers.
