What Made you Smile/What Ticked you off Today?

[Ack]

Hmm...

Interest rate and minimum payment the same? If so, I agree with Papa Ack.

That said, I have no idea about your financial situation but if you do feel antsy even at a student loan rate, pay that sucker off asap.

The BBB serves its purpose, but at the same time any complaint, valid or not, sticks. I have a blemish on my business record since some lady's yarn was shipped a day late. She called the BBB, asked to erase the complaint, but once that complaint is made it is out of our control.

I wouldn't sweat it Ack.

Thanks, Luke. I appreciate your thoughts. I guess I shouldn't be too worried, as I don't intend to miss any payments and make sure to cover this each month. But I've never had this happen before, so it's making me antsy.

I've had the Student Loan Bank arrangement change thing happen too, and I got super worried, super quick.

Again, I would listen to your Father, but if you think you might lose sleep over this, check over your original agreement.

Ted Dib..I mean psfl_gmr may also be able to help you with legal advice if need be.

Best of luck man. I doubt you have anything to worry about.

I'm sick of buyers not paying for their items.

This goes for buyers as well. I'm sick of getting sniped at the last second and then having the item get re-listed a few days later because they didn't pay. Then next time the round more bids drive the price up higher. Getting really fed up with it.

Thanks for the kind words everyone. We're really hoping this works out.

@Luke: Good luck! I applied for a couple Junior Admin jobs for IBM, but lack of experience/college got me every time.

Met up with Hobie today. Didn't get to stay long, but it was fun. I really need to start getting out more often and make more real friends.

Went into work tonight with a very relaxed mood. Trying not to burst any blood vessels tonight...

Pardon me, I'm more than a little steamed this morning.

Some dumb bitch decided it was a good idea to run a red light this morning, while I was halfway through an intersection. This wasn't a simple "catch on the tailend of the last person right after the light changes" running the red light. This was a blatant turn about several seconds after the change. She then sped off down to the state capitol. I really hope a cop catches her, and barring that, she wraps her car around a tree and takes a steering column to the chest. Though I hope the tree is ok.

Hmm...Department of Education has sold my student loan information to a not-for-profit named FedLoan Servicing.

My homeloan was owned by Sears for awhile. Its cool. If you dont pay on time, thats when you get an issue. But you have a real job, making real money, and can pay.

This happened to us yesterday. The light turned green, and the last person from the turning lane that crossed our road went and ran the light, but it was yellow when he started to turn. Our light turned green, all the cars in the three lane road let off their brakes and this stupid idiot ran the light, almost hit all three of us, all the while having three kids in the back seat of the car looking scared for their lives. I was livid and Jinx kept telling me to calm down.

I hope you're okay. People frighten me, and make me see red when they endanger kids for just a few minutes of travel time.

I'm ok. I don't have any kids, so none were in danger, haha! But truthfully, I was furious because I saw her speed up to run the light after it had changed. If she had hit me, I'd have either had to go to the hospital, or I likely would have gone to jail for pulling her from her vehicle and repeatedly slamming her head in the car door. She royally pissed me off.

I hate bad drivers. People drive like shit in these parts because there is very little law enforcement. The amount of speeding is insane - I see cars going 75mph (it's a 55mph road) every single day. Drives me nuts - yet another reason I can't wait until I move.

Speeding isn't necessarily bad driving

[BoneSnapDeez]

These are terrible roads to speed on though - residential, lots of kids and school bus stops, many large and slow-ish vehicles pulling in and out of side roads (tractors, logging trucks), copious amounts of wildlife (deer, moose, coyotes, etc)... Drive too fast and you're just asking for trouble.
