[QUOTE="klmno, post: 394854, member: 3699"] I sat down to pay bills and opened up my first water bill which was for 45 days service but normally will be every two months. I figured it wouldn't be too much because it's only me here and I have so few dishes, I've only ran the wife one time- even though I hate washing dishes. It was $111 then I had a separate bill for "wastewater treatment" and it was $11! Ok, the first (large) bill includes water, sewer, and trash pickup. The second is for wastewater treatment??? What is the sewer charge in the first bill covering? Then I noticed that in the first bill, out of that 111, $76 was for "refuse"- ie, trash pickup. WTF!!! It's one standard, city trash can and they come once a week thru the neighborhood. I will be calling them. But I was wondering if anyone else is paying a standard flat fee for trash pickup anywere close to this. And I'm about to stick a note on the fool's car who keeps parking in front of my house in such a way that I don't have room to when he ought to be parking on the other side of the street but if he just pulled up a little further or backed up some, I would have room to park there, too. And one more beef while I'm on a roll- LOL! I went to see difficult child today- I've been trying to go every two weeks. They (Department of Juvenile Justice) had the option for parents to take their picture with their incarcerated sons last weekend but never told ANYONE- difficult child didn't know ahead of time so couldn't let me know and they never sent anything to the parents. OK, I can get over it but I feel so bad for these parents whose difficult children are in there for years. It's the only time they will be doing it until next year and then that depends on which facility the difficult child is in. Ok, I'm done. I won't even start on the lieing boss that everyone hates. I have money to pay for a roof over my head and the clients' rep that doesn't work for the same company as I do has told me as soon as I get things caught up for my boss, he wants me to work for him full time. I'm setting my sights on bigger and better so I'll just bite my tongue in the meantime. Boss has no clue that I can't stand him so maybe I can get thru this somehow. My mammo came back ok so I am grateful. I am finishing laundry and getting ready to fix something to eat, then pack for yet another trip....... [/QUOTE]
