'War Stories'
Spike's Bitches 31: We're Motivated Go-getters.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Good grief, even the doctors didn't keep notes? I mean, I"d expect the company to know which doctors they gave it to, and the doctors to be able to say "hmm, let's see...here's a note in Mrs. Smith's chart, gave some to her because she was complaining of nausea..."
Records, people! It's all about keeping records!
Records, people! It's all about keeping records!
Right? But from what I read, things like that weren't (obviously) monitored as stringently prior to the 1980s-1990s.
Ack! I knew about Thalidomide. I didn't know about the untracked samples. (Also? Ack. Suddenly have terrible We Didn't Start the Fire earworm.)
That earworm has been always burning since the world's been turning....
JZ is very, very bored, and she really likes getting phone calls, as they remind her she has not fallen off the face of the earth. I told her the board misses her.
Can someone with JZ's phone number at the hospital please send it to me? I would muchly like to speak to her, and of course have her hold the phone against her belly so I can verbally shake my wee fist at the Weenie.
My profile address is good. Thank you!
And it's not even just an old story, since female thalidomide babies are apparently at high risk of developing certain cancers later in life, from what I understand.
Insent, Jen.
Grrr Argh!
My letter to Sallie Mae:
On 7/19/06 I checked my loan 10-day payoff on your website. The amount listed was $***.44 due before 7/29/06.On 7/27 I made a payment of $***.43, and realizing I had made it a penny short, I made a second payment of $1, which is the minimum your system will allow a payment.
By that reconing, you should be showing the loans paid in full, and a surplus of 99 cents in my account.
I decided to check on the process, and indeed find that you did receive payment on 7/27/06 as requested, and fully TWO days before the 10-day payoff deadline.
So, now my account says that no, I still owe $1.63!
This is the second time I have attempted to pay off my student loan, the three years ago you gave me an amount, I had a check drawn up, and you said I had another $*** to pay off. I did not print out the payment amount at that time, so I had no choice.
This time it is different. This time I printed out the payoff amount and I want you to stick to it. And I want my 99 cents back, just on principle.
Please respond immediately.
