stupid computer. Had to change my password, so I did. relogged into everything as required. Then if I wanted to do anything on the internet or in outlook I had to reenter the password. even after closing and restarting the programs.

had to restart the computer twice before it started remembering the passwords like usual.

Why the f*ck can't CVS and my insurance company ever get my damned prescription refills aligned? It seems like every month, I'm running out of 4 things, I go to the pharmacy, they refill two, say I'm not eligible to fill the others, and then I get a text the next day saying my order is ready for pickup!

 
Each prescription bottle should say right on it how many refills are available under that prescription. If it's zero, then they need to call your doctor and get approval to refill. If this is a maintenance drug, then your doctor should write the script for at least 6 months at a time. If it specifically says more refills on the bottle then CVS needs a slap in the head.

They are 12 month scrips for maintenance drugs. All of them. They all show several refills available into late July of next year.

it's slap in the head time.
 
Dammit. They changed the rules at work on PTO. Every October you can "sell back" any PTO you have accrued above the 80hr minimum at your current hourly rate. I have close to 140 hours, which means I was going to sell almost 60 hours back, but they changed the rules so you can't sell more than 40. That cost me $900.

 
That sux Dex! Time to take a longer paid vacation to not loose anything. That is provided you have a use it or loose it policy.

 
either way, that is a decent options. granted it sux that you had been banking on the 60 hrs, but its a decent incentive regardless. we just get scrutinized if we ask for time off, or in certain cases asked to come in despite it

This.

We can't really use it without scrutiny, but we can't do much with it otherwise. Right now I earn 22 days per year, plus get 3 additional "floating holidays", and an executive holiday (extra day to be used between Xmas & New years). If I didn't sell any back I could stay home from Thanksgiving almost through New Years (plus or minus a day).

This really belongs in the first world problems thread...

No shit. It's IMPOSSIBLE to take time off around here. They expect you to be "on call" if you try to take it off. Then they get even more pissed when we all are essentially forced to take the entire month of December off, and there is a "lack of support."

 
so the MIL strikes again. Mrs NJ was out shopping with her in advance of NJ #2'S party this weekend when the topic of Halloween came up. Mrs NJ told her that we would be taking the kids out in our neighborhood. Well, that didn't sit well. After ripping into Mrs NJ, she spent the remainder of the afternoon putting her down and then making derogatory comments toward Mrs NJ in front of the kiddos. Finally Mrs NJ left and went home and of course the kiddos began repeating all that was being said by the MIL.

Correct me if I'm wrong but they are our kids. So we should be able to dictate where and what we do with them. No one else. Looks like I need to get involved.

EDIT: maybe we need a MIL rant thread for just these kinds of topics.

sometimes you have to fire a shot over the bow of the grandparents (to put them in their place) usually an out of town thanksgiving or xmas is a good FU to sent the grandparents..

You could also move to Colorado :)

Dex- that sucks, I would defin be taking some time off over the hellidays, I mean the holidays!

 
First step is taking Thursday and Friday off next week to take the car to Utah. There is a very good performance shop there that will be trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with it. All for the low, low price of $100/hr...
