october nao kthx.
THIS MUST BE WHAT DAMIAN KINDLER WAS TALKING ABOUT ON TWITTER. WORDS CANNOT EXPRESS HOW HAPPY THIS MAKES ME. I need it to be October nowwww.
Other than that, my day has been pretty awful. Work was horrendously busy, and I had so many cranky and annoying customers. AND GODDAMN AMERICANS WHO REFUSE TO SIGN THEIR CREDIT CARDS. Americans on my flist, you know I love you dearly, but WHY OH WHY are so many other people in your country so dumb? I'm not actually supposed to accept a card that hasn't been signed. It says RIGHT ON IT "NOT VALID UNLESS SIGNED." If your card hasn't been signed, Visa/Mastercard/Amex/whatever WILL NOT PROTECT YOU IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO YOUR CARD. I tried to tell that to this lady today, but she wouldn't listen. I should have checked to see if it was signed before I swiped it so I could say I couldn't take it when she refused to sign it, but it had already gone through. NEXT TIME THOUGH I won't. I'll send them up to customer service if I have to and THEY WON'T TAKE IT THERE EITHER. GOD. ANd the worst part of it was how...condescending this woman was. Like, she wasn't going to have some little CANADIAN tell her what she should do with her credit card, because HER BANK said she shouldn't sign it. BULLSHIT. THANK YOU rowenamarion. I love haqving a friend who works in and American bank. I can't WAIT for someone to make a blanket statement about what American banks say to do, and then I can say ACTUALLY NOT. Ugh. It was the rudeness of this lady more than anything. She wasn't overtly rude, it was just they way her whole manner was towards me about it. Like just condescending and like I was dumb and didn't matter. I was actually shaking after she left and it didn't stop for about ten or fifteen minutes. I don't know if it was adreneline or anger or what but it sure sucked.
Okay, I actually feel a lot better getting all that out.
And on top of all that, I'm having computer issues again. It frustrates me that I have something very specific in mind for what I want in a computer, but it doesn't seem to exist. Sigh. FML.
