reymonkeyI haven't posted partly because I don't like to spill angst all over this journal. I've been stressed, and a large reason has been financial. I thought I knew how much money I had in the bank, paid off my Sprint bill that was past due, and made a couple other minor purchases (lunch, gas for the car). The next thing I knew I was overdrawn, and with the overdraft fees I was almost $150 in debt to the bank. I'm not financially savy or numbers savy, I have a math disability, so I was beating myself up for thinking I had more money than I did and getting myself into trouble. My tax refunds came through and saved my ass, but still.
This morning the chick that does payroll at work informed me that the bank had taken the last paycheck I deposited, and handed it straight back to the issuer. They deposited my entire paycheck to my employer.
WTF?
If I'd had my paycheck, I would've had the money I counted on being there, and never been overdrawn.
The good news is that my coworker who does payroll must've said the right things. They sent an employee physically down to the store (we're in the same shopping center) with all the carbon copies of paperwork for the corrections. I get my paycheck back, and my overdraft fees.
I should probably take it as some kind of sign that I was so willing to beat myself up and assume the mistake was mine. Aaanyway.

| You rarely get angry and it takes a lot to make you angry, however mostly your emotions are on an even keel and you do not get depressed easily. You tend not to talk much and prefer to let others control the activities of groups. You tend not to express your emotions openly and are sometimes not even aware of your own feelings. You do not like to claim that you are better than other people, and generally shy from talking yourself up, however you believe that a certain amount of deception in social relationships is necessary. You are guarded in new relationships and less willing to openly reveal the whole truth about yourself. You take your time when making decisions and will deliberate on all the possible consequences and alternatives. |
