Oh gosh, came in for lunch and see my wife was paying bills this morning. I have a note seed bill is due. Do you all think I could start a GoFundMe for it?

One company made me pay already for next years sees when they won’t refund me yet for last years returns.
Ordered my Christmas cards late Sunday night. They were delivered on Wednesday.
My previous three orders from them in November were delivered the next day.
I've stored six of their Tenders at a place I rent for a few years for no fee, and this year they didn't park them where I asked. I had to move them as I couldn't wait for them to do it. I needed to park my own equipment. I see they asked if I would buy two of them. LOL. Not only no, but given the year, I think that when I drop off the check, we need to have a talk about storage fees for next year.
I love it when someone sends me an email and then sends me a Teams message to tell me they sent the email
I did pull the other day of forwarding an email and then walking over to someone's desk about five minutes later about said email. It was an email that had to be dealt with that day, and I did apologize to my coworker about it.
My former boss had two email quirks.
1) she would send me an email and tell me to email it to someone for her. No editing. Just copy paste to a fresh email and send. No clue why.
2)send an email while I'm on the phone with a client, or otherwise occupied, and before I even read it she comes to my office to ask about whatever was in her email.
I spent a lot of time wondering why she even had email...

I was a T.A. for one semester (we changed every semester) who would email between 2-4 AM, because he thought he had the mental stamina to work forever. It would always be nasty, personal, and unprofessional, to say the least. I learned quickly that he didn't even know he sent it by 8 AM. Therefore, I'd look at it, not necessarily read it, but see it and open it, nod, and move on with life.
He was great. Called me a Nazi after observing class. It was a bit more awkward in that he was and is married to my major professor. I'll always wonder if I should have made some changes there.
