Shit that annoys you

I canceled AT&T DSL service on Aug 11, spending 36 minutes on the phone with them to to that. AT&T just sent me a bill for service for Aug 13- Sept 12. Called them again, spent another 18 min on the phone, clueless CSR said to just wait and not pay the bill, there should be another one coming that clears up that charge.

My guess is they send me a bill including a late fee for not paying this bullshit bill.

If you already have good credit. Just tell them to fuck off.
It’s so satisfying.

If necessary, my next phone call to them will be to request the name and address for their agent for service of process.

I do…but these type of things never seem to go well for me. (latest ex…Student Loan Forgiveness fiasco)..lol.

We switched from Consolidated Communications and they did the same thing to us--charged us for service after the cancellation date--and we got the same story --we'll straighten it out with a new bill. I wasn't happy but we waited to pay and they did straighten it out. I'm not sure why these companies' electrons take as long to turn as Great Lakes freighters but they do.

And isn't the multiple private garbage companies more of an Eastern US/mafia kind of thing. Or do I watch too much TV? Anyway, be careful crossing your garbage company, you could get curb stomped.

The local waste transfer station is a 5min drive, we end up with far more free stuff than garbage to pay tipping fees for. Ends up being a trip every two weeks with one having a couple garbage bags. Odd load of wood waste/demo stuff that is billed by the tonne. Most months about $2 in tipping, maybe $20 in tonnage fees during the summer. So much cheaper and easier than the local garbage pickup that only deals with household garbage and paper recycling, for what was $14/mo 10+yrs ago.

What amuses me (I know wrong thread) is US mags complaining about free market (garbage collection) competition and brings that movie ‘Just Kill Me’ to mind. Mmmm, Téa Leoni

Well it is a great way to dispose of a body - though nothing beats pig farm.

That may be changing in Canada. And no joking matter. Very sad story(s) out of Winnipeg

I get the dark humour, but timing is everything.

[Ted Striker]

Holy fuck... I was of course referring to Robert Pickton, and although in poor taste, enough time has passed for macabre jokes about him. Didn't realize there was a recent copy cat. That's just gut wrenching. Right down to the same racist indifference. Ugh.

Garbage is weird here. It’s all private. With multiple trucks up and down the street.

I’m all for free market capitalism. My idea is three year contracts where it’s open bid for each town. Private companies but less traffic and wasted gas.

Gobmint garbage is wasteful. On Long Island they have two man crews come by twice a week. On union pay and benefits and retirement. Of course they have the highest taxes in the us.

They haven't shot the hostages yet and are trying to keep them in "saleable" condition.

[The AD]

With those terrible weather conditions you can't expect them to drive the speed limit.

Not so new in southern Arizona.

We have the side x side issue in Jackson now, which is fully ridiculous as there aren't even any 4x4 roads anywhere nearby that you couldn't do in an outback.

Websites/Google asking me if I'd like to log into my Google account and continue browsing. Fuck off.

I can't imagine the problem is localized to here but drivers running red lights is off the handle here. Just blowing through a stale red light with no give a fuck.

This shit has been going on here for years. It does seem to be getting worse, though.

Yeah, what's that about. Just started noticing it.

They weren’t tracking you to their satisfaction before.

There’s an intersection on my way home that I always look before I go when the light turns green. Folks driving much faster than the speed limit don’t realize that the timing of the yellow is for the speed limit, not double.

At this point, I consider the painted lines to be unnecessary and somewhat arbitrary. As soon as a pass is safely viable, get fucking on it.

The worst is when you get behind this guy and oncoming traffic only exists when the road otherwise would allow for passing.
