Hey, a chance to use the Blog for its proper purpose! Venting!
One of the things I did last week in the bill-paying portion of our show was to drop off a check to our former bank, paying off the balance of the overdraft that was left owing when we dropped them like a handful of smelly fly-blown skunk entrails to start an account at Lamar Civic Federal Credit Union, where the staff is still human and decent.
So I get a phone call this morning, to let me know I still owe them 42 cents.
That's right. The all-knowing and all-powerful Bookkeeping Department at First National Bank in Lamar can take the time to dun someone for 42 cents, but can't be bothered to look into the concerns of a (15 year +) customer who was being arbitrarily yanked around. There's good business sense, huh?
No, I do not intend to pay them the 42 cents.
