I’m having some trouble with the computer at work. At first, I thought it was a Jumpline issue i.e. they were somehow blocking me. Accordingly, I emailed Technical support and the rep. said he was able to upload a file to my account. WTF? Well, I tried uploading some files on my computer this time [...]

A wee bit frustrated
Jane Ullah @ November 27, 2007 # One Comment
There’s a little known fact about me: sometimes, the really small stuff gets to me. We have some sort of sharing system going on. Without divulging too much, it’s a situation that’s causing me to rip the little hairs out and the kicker is that it’s over little stuff. Seriously, how do I let go [...]

Wow, I feel like I’ve been ripped off. I bought a $29.99 Belkin Bluetooth Adapter from CompUSA on the 24th only for them to unleash a $20 rebate the next day (i.e. today)!!! What gives?? Well, the first thing is that I placed another order for a Bluetooth Adapter. The second is I shall be [...]

Bank drama et al
Jane Ullah @ November 25, 2007 # One Comment
Well, well, well. The saga isn’t over yet no matter how much I’d like it to be. The first salvo has been fired by yours truly (me). My initial demands from Bank of America & Wachovia were: (i) figure out whose fault it was that a valid check issued by BoA was rejected (ii) In [...]

I just saw a Bank of America adsense ad on my front page!! Horror of horrors!!! lol. Well, I called them like they instructed me to. Turns out that their stock answer to me now is that the research time to investigate is roughly 1 week. I can wait and bide my time. Revenge, they [...]

I’m excited about this week. Mostly because I may (should) be able to take Thursday and Friday off. Technically, I can do as I please because those days are mandated paid holidays. Besides, I even came in on Sunday to do some work in order not to feel guilty. I think I should just tell [...]

*shaking head* I am really pissed off right now at two of my banks. I received a refund of my collateral ($99) from one of them and cashed this amount at the second bank around the 1st week of November. Fastforward to this morning, I checked account at second bank to find that the check from [...]

Having a plan for the future
Jane Ullah @ November 16, 2007 # No Comment Yet
So, I’ve been reading up on financial articles and the like. Particularly, those that focus on how to start saving for retirement, paying off credit card debt, you get the picture. Right now, we have some “manageable” debt. Mostly what I brought with me into my union. Sorry, M. lol. Sometimes, I freak myself [...]

Strange times

My latest social network fixation is: Facebook. I fall in the “coveted” category of people whom advertisers think will be suckers for their adverts & willing to click on them. Well, I haven’t clicked on a single Facebook ad since I have been a member. However, due to their layout, I will say I have [...]

How to get your way. :)

The number one rule that works in my play book is: [drumroll] Be. Nice. Seriously, this works for me about 75% of the time. The other times, the other party got out of the wrong side of the bed. Case in point: I purchased some software (Essential Net Tools) from Tamosoft via a promotion [...]
