The insanity, it seems, has peaked, and I'm finally gaining momentum on the long downhill slope back to the merely painful (as opposed to the current, suicidal) level of overcommitment that defines my life. I've finally added josh to my links. Even though I've been a faithful visitor to self-aggrandizement for awhile, somehow I never got around to the actual linking. Until now. Last Thursday's post was a perfect example of the gems that he lays out every so often.

Ally signed off at 10:22 a.m. Tuesday, March 16, 2004 Lunch BreakI came home for lunch today and found two hippy boys, with no shirts on, making fire in the back yard. It wasn't until I got back to work and my co-worker said, "What do you mean making fire?" that I realized it wasn't an ordinary everyday occurrence Ally signed off at 04:33 p.m. Friday, March 12, 2004 bank account: Good Idea / Bad Idea ?Have you ever tried explaining to a bank teller that you think they've made a mistake? In my experience they get all offended as if you've just called their mama a slut or something. The woman i just got off the phone with was up in arms that i would even suggest that the bank changed the type of account I had.....Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself. I'll go back to the beginning. I was looking at my statement online today because I'm an idiot and i've overdrawn my account, which is really an injustice in it's own right. I'm overdrawn because of the money I transferred into savings. So it's not that I don't have the money - it was just moved to a different account. Usually it takes 3 days before the transfers go through. Usually. However, the banks must be in speed mode because the transfer went through the day i requested it. Well then I realized that I must have been on serious drugs when I decided that i could make it to my next paycheck with only 200.00. Somehow i had forgotten about the pesky little rent check that had not been deposited yet. Once I realized that the 200 dollars was not going to cover that check I immediately attempted to transfer the money back from savings to checking. Unfortunately for me the banks have slowed back down to a normal speed and it will be three days before the transfer is received. This is all ridiculous, but alas, it is my fault and I will handle it without too many tears. But, my careless spending is not the topic of discussion today. Today I want to talk about the wretched customer service woman I had to deal with today. Here’s the situation in a nutshell – as I was pouring over my account trying to figure out where I screwed up I noticed a 20-dollar charge, an “Advantage Maintenance Fee”. Well I shouldn’t be getting charged maintenance fees so I call the bank. This woman answers the phone and I’m very nice to her because I remember working in customer service and I know that it isn’t her fault that the bank is charging me. She looks up my account and tells me that the 20 dollars is because I didn’t keep my account balance over the $5000.00 (that right, five thousand) minimum that is required for advantage customers. When I told her I wasn’t an advantage customer she said, “yes, you are and if you aren’t going to be able to keep your balance above the minimum, you’re going to continue to get charged.” I pointed out that I didn’t receive a “Maintenance Fee” in January and she claimed that she couldn’t verify that because their systems only go back 45 days. She couldn’t look at anything before February, instead she would have to send a request to the research department and they would be able to send me a copy of the statement showing when I had signed up for the Advantage account. She didn’t think it was funny when I asked how they were going to do that since I NEVER signed up for the stupid advantage account. Evidently I just have to wait the 5 to 7 days it will take to receive a copy of the form I never signed for the account I never transferred. Until then, can anyone spare a quarter?
