Eric I agree about being honest. For Me it's just about "not being taken advantage of"

Like Jenny's Grand Prix - you guys remember when that guy backed into her car and put it up in Allan's Lawn?


The rear quarter panel was dented and it cracked the tail light. Well the insrance company wouldn't pay for the "cracked Tail light" saying it was still "usable" the tail light was $300 extra.

It's just stuff like this,that gets under myskin about "company's" in general. Call me old fashioned or what not. It's just I fail to grasp how some company's think/act the way they do and are able to get away with it.

Like did you guys here that Mike Hatch is sueing AT&T. AT&T got caught charging people extra money.

I know AT&T isn't the only company doing things like that. I got a phone call from a "Discover Card" on day telling me about all these privelages, etc of a new program they have going on for a 1 time cost of $70.

You basically got discounts on AirFare, Hotel rates, Rental Car, some Gas stations, etc.

So I said sent me the packet so I can "Look at it" - we'll discover charged me $70 and I never recieved the packet I refused to pay and instead called up and complained, they said they'd take car of it, but when I got my next statement I had another $70 charge added to my bill.

I refused to pay that also, Called em up and htey were like sorry, long story short they kept that "Bill" going for 6 months before finally taking it off my credit card. However I wasn't rembured the "Interest" for those charges during that time.


I honestly can't believe the way society is aimed. It's all about the "Money" and nothing about the "people" - You see this every day.


Here at Work - I know some of you heard me complain about this in the past.

3years now they'd denied me a payraise - not even a Cost of living increase.

The first 2 times were understandable due to things happening in the company so I accepted it.

But this last time I was totally expecting compensation for my hard work. Nash actually Claimed they had one of the highest increase's in profit this fiscal year.

But when it came time for raise's - they said "sorry" we aren't doing well enough to give out pay raises. We had 38 managers walk off the job in 1 day.

If it wasn't for the house payment I would have walked off also.

Anyrate enough rambling - Eric I'm glad your company is taking care of you.
