Just as I expected...

They are morons! :)

I called them back up a bit ago after I got the radio ID number from my wife. First off these automated machines are rediculous. I called and as I was clearing my throat it sent me to a department I didn't want to go to. So just a warning, clear your throat say what you need to say to your animals or whatever else before you call or these machines will take advantage of you.

So I got on the phone with the guy and he asked my my phone number, I let him know that the previous girl said I wasn't in the system (some how) and that to give my other radio #. I did that and he read off the account details which were exactly what I gave her. So then I asked if I can be charged months instead of quarterly he said no problem. I said wait, last time I said that they charged me 55 bucks for 3 months. I only want to pay monthly and I know that its an extra 3 bucks a month to do it that way. He said ok, so I guess we'll see how that goes.

bastards

Why XM Radio is losing money

I figured it out. They are morons.

Thanks!

Well no really they are. We just bought a new car and had it put on our vehicle about 4 weeks ago. They have charged me the 50.97 for 3 months of service up front after they told me it would be monthly charge. I bought the portable XMP3 last night, as I was just so excited to activate it this morning. I called them and after waiting on hold for 20 minutes they say they can't find mine or my wifes name, our address or our phone number on file.

How the fuck did you charge me 50.97 if I have nothing on file? Now I need to ask my lovely wife to check out the radio in her car for a radio ID so they can look up in the system. If they can't find that then hell with them Im going to buy a transistor radio at Goodwill tonight.

Boring Day

Bought myself a xmas present today since I didn't get it, got the XMP3, portable satellite radio. Can't wait to use it at the gym. I think Im going to be lazy today though and watch football. Hope you all had a good weekend.

Gotta love parents

I think this goes on just in more then my family. My mom has this fascination for the past 20 years of giving me and now my brother in law and 4 year old nephew the same present every year. What? you ask.... Chicken in a biscuit crackers and aerosol cheese. I used to eat this when I was 8 watching football on Sunday, I really haven't had one in probably 5 years. My wife is a health nut so the present hasn't made it home in 5 years, it just ends up in the dumpster outside whatever or whoever house we are that night.

Besides that with Christmas there is nothing else I really get the same every year. My mother was nice enough to stop with the underwear and socks after the age of 12 so that's always nice. I know I should be thankful to really get anything this time of year but oh well.

btw how sick is that guy who shot up the family in Covina, CA this weekend?http://www.latimes.com/news/local/los_angeles_metro/la-me-santa-shooting26-2008dec26,0,2255875.story?track=rss

Well I hope everyone has a good weekend, Im going to try to avoid shopping this weekend, though I really want to get a Sirius XM Radio, I have my eye on that XMP3, maybe that will motivate me to go to the gym some more so I don't have to watch MSNBC, CNN, or the As Seen on TV channel at 24 hour fitness.

So

One thing you'll notice is that some days Ill only post something short, other days I may go off on 4-5 tangents. I'm sorry but sometimes you just want to say stuff. I'm still at work on Christmas Eve, though my boss told everyone we would be able to leave 30 minutes ago we're all sitting here still.

It doesn't help our front desk person is a little on the crazy side. Every time I walk through the door shes talking to her self, singing strange songs or giving wrong information on the phone to a customer. Now most places would get rid of someone who is giving out the wrong info but our boss would never do that so we're stuck with her. Just walked into the break room a bit ago and she was watching peoples court and yelling at the guy on the plaintiff side saying he is wrong. So I just hurried up got my stuff and ran out.

One more thing, I though I would search a lot of these blogs on here to see what people are talking about, but I notice every time I hit next blog 90% of them are in a different language other then my own. Hey Google why don't you fix it so we can adjust our blog view preferences.

Thanks!

Christmas Eve

Hell its Christmas Eve so why not start a new blog? Ive had blogs in the past but mostly just for family, this is going to be one of those blogs I can update everyday without having to worry about what my family or wife think about it.

Right now Im at work, while layoffs are going on everywhere in this company Im sitting here blogging about it. It's a crappy situation everywhere right now and granted I am happy to have a job even though I don't like it. I wish I could find something else to do but for the time being Im just one of the "working for the weekend" or "work to live" people. Im hoping someday soon I can be a "live to work" or a "shut the hell up I don't need to work" person.

To keep this blog as honest as possible Im going to be using titles instead of names. For example, instead of my wifes name Ill say wife or nephew or sister or you get the idea (I hope). Im not a rude person I just feel that I need to speak what is on my mind everyday as an outlet to avoid from a postal rage or me throwing random items at strangers that walk by.

I will do my best to update this every weekday and sometimes on the weekend with some type of blog, wether it be a 10 paragraph story or a one liner, either way Im dedicated to you to give you something to do each day.

Thanks for reading, and as the title says I hope you do become addicted :)
