^ . . . self deprecation . . . or just hand out paper bags
^Amen.
And being the only one drunk at a party. That's always rather embarrassing the next day

we pay a shitload each month in rent, but it doesn't count as being proof of being a good creditor go figure, never missed a payment in a gazillion years . . .
i still hate being all insecure and stuff.
please don't tell me you bank with westpac? recently, we changed a few things around with them. we came off a year fixed and have locked into some shit low rates, the guy casually mentions we're paying through the nose for the credit cards. yes, we'd noticed that.. thanks. so anyway, he knocks about 8-10% off them and we're happy clams. the new cards arrive a week or two later and i go to use my new debit card which says 'press credit for... blah blah' ok, i get these things. debit mastercards. ok. i think my only problem is telling the difference between the master and the debit which are both blood red and painfully similar. but no. the iga rejects my card. confused, because i HAVE the money, i get nervous and credit card it. i forget and a week later am in the gamesmen, trying to buy some um... education software, yeah... for the kids... and i hand over my debit card and nervously tell the guy to choose credit for me.. it rejects! i KNOW i have the cash! i DON'T want to put another transaction on the credit just because this card is not working! i tell the guy, 'please hang on to these educational tools, i'll be back!' he smiles, thinking, 'yeah lady... you're just broke and embarrassed.' so i stalk off to westpac which is just a few shops down and say to the lady, 'i got these cards and i know i got money, look! my balace receipt! why aren't they working? ' she recognises me from the other week when we sorted out the changes. she examines my cards and swipes them and mutters. then she tells me:
'oooooh, yeah, see.... someone.... isn't smart. this debit card? it's a debit master, like it says, but it's now a cheque acct. card. i know, it's ridiculous.'
'but... i don't have a cheque acct. the chequebook is just a bonus of my savings acct.!'
'i understand. this is how silly this system is. you can't select savings on this card. only cheque or credit, and for some reason the credit facility had not been activated, which i have now done, and so before now the only way you could have accessed your money was to select cheque, despite you not having nor ever having a cheque acct. with us and only having a chequebook linked to your savings account. i'm really sorry, but the cheque button on eftpos terminals is the only one with a link to the falcon money protection programme which this facility uses.'
um. ok.
please don't tell me you bank with westpac?
People that reply here with different color font.
You KNOW that's just an invitation to do this.
You only don't like it because your old man eyes can't read different colours.
Well you know it's bad when it even hurts my young womans eyes.
