Fucking city hall fucktards, came to shut off my water!!! I paid 2 days after the bill came, they said I didn't, had to search thru my back statements and then show them. They said I had to take it to city hall, I did. They said it was a mistake and that it was their fault. I replied "get your shit together, it's not my job to be your fucking accountant"..... I was this close _ to throat punching someone, lucky for them it's in the same building as the police station.

Also she said they print every sections of the city off and cross off the people that paid by hand instead of just printing a list of those that didn't. Literally a fucking line from a pen almost got my shit shut off!

Damn, I was really looking forward to class today, but my "student of the day" didn't come :xD:

At least I got to go fishing yesterday with no incidents. Funny thing though, we were the only ones on the lake and no other boats in sight...word must've gotten around to stay away from my boat.

That's a crock of shit, to just go and turn off a basic life necessity, with nary a warning or delinquency letter to let it be known that an issue exists to be addressed. Like shit doesn't get lost in the mail once in a while.

Which is exactly why I now pay all bills online that will permit it. Our last truck, when we made our VERY FIRST payment, the fucking USPS lost the fucking payment! So we had to go thru the whole ball of wax to get a refund on the money order, and then pay it online, and for the entire 4 yrs we had that truck, the pmt record was spotless... except that very first one, which pissed me off every month when I paid it online.

We stopped using checks years ago, because we just don't like the idea of our names, address, phone number, and back acct/routing number being transmitted by an organization as fucking inept as the postal service, what with all the identity thieves these days. We're paperless on pretty much everything.

My city doesn't do water bills online, only in person or in the mail. Both have to be via cash or check, with my wife working 70+hours a week and me with 30-40 and full time school and our boy it's a PITA to go down to city hall. So we mailed it, they cashed it.... That was about 30 days ago. But every bill besides that one we have auto withdrawal so we never miss one.

Damn, that sucks! Our water is thru the county, and I just pay it online with my debit card -- same for gas and electric, though both of those are thru EMCs.

The only one we still pay thru the mail is our truck payment, since we refinanced it, because the only way they accept electronic payment is with an auto-debit, and we only use those if it's really required (like our ADT pmt) or it gives us a financial benefit.

We do everything online, have it set to withdraw it the moment the bill is issued. The water being quarterly we sometimes forget it but it's never been paid past its due date.

So I dropped my van off yesterday to have the back brakes fixed and few other things checked out so my wife can take her kids to the beach. My first mistake was taking it to a dealership. My appointment was @ 10am this morning and they called around 4:30...just to give me a quote. OK, they are busy, however, they tell me that they can't order the parts until tomorrow because the deadline for ordering them is 2pm. So I ask the guy when the van will be ready, his reply, "sometime next week". Uhhhhhh, I told them I needed the van by Monday when I dropped it off. I asked the guy why it took so long just to get a quote, well they are busy...yeah I get that but I had an appointment...well they had other cars to work on...yeah, that explains the lot being so full...well you had 4 hours from the time of my appointment to find out what was wrong and get a quote so you could order the parts...well some other vehicles repairs had carried over to today and the mechanic was delayed getting to mine :headbang:...THEN he quotes me a price...with an oil change and 15 point inspection, some diagnostic thing to figure out why the check engine light was on and to fix the back brakes, which had all kinds of stuff wrong (hubs, rotors, bearings) and a brake kit, the quote was $1,001 :wtf: SERIOUSLY??? I'm no mechanic, but even I know that is the craziest thing I've ever heard.

But the story has a happy ending. Fortunately my wife's father is a used car salesman (and a preacher, what a combo huh). He told her to get the vehicle outta that place and bring it to him and he'd have it fixed by one of his mechanics. Plus he has a van on his lot that my wife can use to go to the beach, and I really need her to take the kids to the beach if you know what I mean ;) 5 days to myself with just our dogs to keep me company :bliss:

Sorry for the rant, it just irks the ever loving shit outta me when businesses don't hold to appointments and then give every excuse they have that doesn't mean shit to me or that I even care. Sorry you are busy and one of your mechanics is on vacation, blah blah blah :blah::blah::blah:

Man that sucks. Yeah, with shop rates over $100/hr, dealer repairs are a shell shocker.
You need a fuckin hug. Tell your wife to give you one.

OMG :giggle::giggle::giggle: I haven't laughed so hard it a long time.

I think karma rewarded me for not killing or maiming anyone at the dealership when I went to get my van today and I won a 30ml bottle of juice!!! I guess it pays to be nice...sometimes. Well that's my limit for the year, all the other fuckers that wanna mess with me better watch out 'til next year:shades:
