at least she's doing dumb things to try and save money, my gf's always finding ways to spend the stuff. just got back from a meeting where i've set myself up with a shitload of work for the next 6 weeks that should bring in some good dollar and the first thing she says is 'you'll need a holiday after that, let's drop a few grand on spending a couple of dull as shit weeks at some crappy resort, surrounded by fat old people we have nothing in common with*'.YourGrandpa wrote:I was doing some downloading/uploading tonight and noticed my connection was abnormally slow. It seemed like my U/L rate was cut in half. So I decided to give tech support a call. After going through all the tech BS and doing a speed test the tech tells me my speed is normal. I tell him it's low. It's suppose to be 1meg up and 6 meg down. He tells me no it's not. It's suppose to be 384k up and 4meg down, because that's what you're paying for. I thought I was paying for the faster service, because it was 1m/6m before. So I asked to be transfered to sales/billing. Come to find out, the wife called in and turned down my service in October and never told me. I then told the sales lady to turn my service back up to 1m/6m for the measly $9.00 a month. Obviosly the wife doesn't know (not that it's a big deal), but she soon will when she sees the bill.
What would you do from this point forward to return the favor? Should I cancel one of her credit cards or something? I'm kind of pissed that she did that without telling me.
