    Okay, so do they NOT have direct deposit for paychecks--excuse me, paycheques--in Canada?

      They do but my old landlord liked rent in cash so I've always just draw a paycheque. Gonna switch it over to direct deposit now though, yeah. Not that it would have helped in this situation much. -.-

        It has been a severely bad week for me, so excuse the shortness. -.-


        I Put On My Robe and Wizard Hat

        Me: “Good evening, <company>”
        SC: “Hi, is this the phone number that's been physically assaulting me?”

        Oh, hello crazy lady. Been a while since your last check in. I actually haven’t heard from any of the regular crazies lately. I was beginning to worry. So, this phone number is assaulting you is it? Please, elaborate.


        Me: “Excuse me?”
        SC: “I’m not repeating myself.”

        Then this will be a rather short conversation. Your initial statement was so bizarre I require an encore to determine if I heard it correctly. So that I can truly appreciate all the flavours of it’s lunacy.


        Me: “I didn’t hear what you said”
        SC: “Is this the number where someone has been physically hurting me from. That means my throat right now, I have a cold and sore throat.”

        …and…this is my fault? Wait, let me get this straight. So you came down with a cold and sore throat, so you logically came to the conclusion that I’m a wizard?


        Me: “…I don’t understand how a phone number could hurt you.”
        SC: “Making me repeat something with a sore throat is not a kind thing to do. I’m asking a question.”

        Neither is accusing me of Voodoo.

        SC: “Why is someone hurting me and the baby, why am I being hurt all the time in the province of British Columbia by someone that’s pretending to be a kind person but isn’t. Why am I being hurt in a media sort of way using my information?”

        Alright sooo….the media is out to get you and I’m a wizard?


        Me: “I’m afraid I don’t understand.”
        SC: “This isn’t over <click>”

        Now now, should you really be threatening an all powerful wizard such as myself? If you think the cold is bad, I can cast Bigby's Unending Taint Sweat up to 6 times a day before I need to rest and re-memorize it.
        That's a -10 penalty to Will saves involving "Any remaining hope for all of humanity", and a -2 penalty to my INT score for this amount of stupidity from the woman,, but you get a +4 bonus to Diplomacy checks from now on with me Grave for the DnD reference.

          I'd probably buy a skirt with this pattern. Depending on which solid color shirt it's paired with, you get 4 outfits in one!

                  I don't get it. What does the landlord's preferences have to do with how you get your work paycheck? Seriously, whether you get it via a hard check or direct deposit, if your landlord prefers cash, you still have to go to the bank. The difference between a hard check and direct deposit here is that DD is more likely to get you your money in the bank on a regular basis, with the check clearing that much quicker, so that you can get the cash for your landlord that much quicker.

                  Interesting the different tastes. You have trouble focusing after seeing it, and all I can imagine is Anna Paquin in a sundress of that material being soaked down by a garden hose!

                    Getting my rent from my account is 2 days worth of ATM withdrawals. Getting my rent from a paycheque is 5 minutes at a 24-hour Money Mart.

                    Banks are not open on the hours I am typically conscious. ><

                      Oh my God, that plaid is awesome!!!

                      I would totally wear that. As a super simple old-fashioned house dress, with orange ribbons in my hair and honkin-big safety-orange puddle-stomping boots. In public. My God, I'd look like the spawn of a Scotsman and a construction sign! How fun would that be!





                      uh....yeah. I'm weird like that. Sorry.

                              Out of curiosity, how much did the money mart charge?
