I've been in my new job for....2 months now I think? I am beginning to understand it! It's a very very VERY different thing than banking for normal people, I work in Invoice Discounting for businesses. It's fun, considerably better paid and I have a really good relationship with named clients.
Striker is that an inspection for the car?

I'm going to imagine he schedule an inspection for himself.

Congrats on the understanding. I've been working at mine for 11 years and I
still don't get half of what I do.
And yeah, for my car. Also gotta renew my license but I can do that online. But I apparently need a printer for that, so I'm gonna do it at my dad's house.

I'm so sorry, there are things you can get to treat that you know.

Things are looking fine on my new 25 inch monitor. It's 1080p resolution is the same as the 23 inch device it replaced; technically the image wouldn't be quite as sharp. But as I don't have the eyes of a hawk it does make text easier to read. With Windows I sync the same 1080p wallpaper with my laptop (which has a full HD screen itself).
Perhaps it was a bit of an impetuous move but I'm prone to that from time to time. Anyway, ebay-ing my old one will bring back some of the outlay and my overall savings rate remains good in the long run.

Impetuousness isn't entirely bad.
Car passed inspection and I'm ready for winter! Come at me, Old man!

92 year old grandmother tripped and broke her nose in two places because 96 year old grandfather left out his shoes. She is fine and he is fine. Obviously framed out.
Here is the thing. My parents have a reputation if not contacting me on anything in this day and age. I mean they know I have a constant contact with the outside world through smart phone. But yet even to this day I get the last minute info from my cousins.
It is bullshit. I live literally 10 minutes from my grandparents closer than anybody and I will drop what I am doing too but nobody contacts me.
Oh and the clincher? I am the grandparents favorite.

I was online looking for tickets to a hockey game. I wanted Sabres vs. Rangers at Madison Square Garden. I was in a bit of rush because I had a $40 coupon that was expiring that week so I wasn't looking at the tickets as closely as I should have, I bought the ticket and when I got the e-mail I realized I had bought a ticket for Sabres vs Rangers at First Niagara Center. In Buffalo.

Oh, that

Any chance of a refund or exchange?

How's this for a dilemma - I was offered a ticket for Rutgers at Ohio State. In Columbus.

Well, that's good.
