$9 ****ing dollars to get $40


I assumed that $2-$3 was typical, but I have never seen anything like $9.
Never could understand why people haven't gotten behind the CFPB and Biden's fight against junk fees.

America is becoming a country that can no longer question itself, invest in the public good or imagine a future beyond the dreamscapes of the rich and ruling elite. Apocalyptic fears, uncertainties and anxieties feed a rising tsunami of violence that has become the organizing principle of governance, everyday life and society itself. American society is caught in the daily routines of lies, corruption and manufactured ignorance; one consequence is the withering of individual and social agency along with civic culture and the public imagination. American optimism has turned bleak. In the age of gangster capitalism, people lose their interconnections, community and sense of security. Isolation and anxiety gives way to mass depression and is ripe for expressions of rage and hatred. The guard rails of justice, compassion, the welfare state, politics, democratic values and the institutions that nourish them are under threat of disappearing. Apocalyptic terrors have moved from the realm of fiction into the social fabric of everyday life. - Henry Giroux 2023-03-05

3 $3 fees. One from my bank, one from the other bank, and one called an 'inconvenience fee'
Who exactly is inconvenienced here, and so much so it costs $3 of work to correct it?

Are you kidding?

Literally millions of electrons had to get out of bed, shower, get dressed, and go somewhere new through an maze of traces and transistors. If you hadn't gone to the ATM, they could have kept sleeping and would not have been inconvenienced at all!

I requested more hours from my manager today, and instead of helping out the person who's been there the 2nd longest, she fired me. What the actual ****??
No matter. I was giving her a chance to keep me, since I have a new job lined up I'm supposed to start next week.
She made the choice very easy for me.

When things were working and we were properly staffed, the job was super fun. Too bad that was rarely the case.

Why you said, Noisy?

Just generally. No money, no job, no food, no friends, no car, no woman. Just generally sad.

I wish I could help you, I'm same, feeling depressed most of the time.
At least, if you were somewhere close, I could invite you for a nice dinner  :)
Everyone who I cooked for, say my food makes them happy, I think you would like it too.

EDIT: tp, not just veggies, but also some nice meat - noisy likes meat :)
