    I'm starting to get really frustrated again because I don't feel like my debt is getting paid off quick enough! There's so much I want to do but there's not enough money to do it. I don't know if I should be splitting the amounts I pad 3 ways (some to cc, some to savings acc and some to a big carlsberg bottle I'm dying to fill with pound coins!) or carry on paying of the cc :confused:


    I suppose it depends what the interest rates on the credit card is really. I am concentrating my efforts on my HSBC CC at the moment because for the 3rd time this year they have put the interest rates up!! :mad::mad:

    Morning all.
    To say i am angry today would be a huge understatement!!!
    OH should have been paid today (first payday since his transfer), but when i checked the online banking i realised he hasnt. He rang work who told him to ring head office, turns out they messed his transfer up somehow and he isnt even on the payroll. So now he wont get paid until next week. Dont really know how we are going to manage until need to do some serious budgeting.

    I wish I could trade places with those of you who have rain - I'll probably be shot down for this but I really hate this sunny, hot weather. :eek: I choose to holiday (once in a blue moon) in rainy places - Wales, The Lake District as I cannot bear to be hot. I'm a right grump in this weather. However, on nice rainy days I seem to be full of energy and good spirits. I obviously have the opposite of SAD! :p

    Anyway todays pad is £14.

    Someone at work is driving me crazy!!! Must not murder work colleague, must not murder work colleague! lol

    He sends me an email and then (and I'm not kidding here), calls me 2 seconds later (before it's even arrived in my inbox) to tell me that he's sent it and what it says! This happens about 3 or 4 times per day during the busy payroll week! I've tried to tell him he doesn't need to call, but he ignores me. He's trying to be helpful apparantly.

    And yet, when I have a query from a client, I have to convince him to do the work. It seriously takes about 10-15 minutes each time. And the stupid thing is, the queries are so small, it would've been quicker for him to just do it in the first place.

    It's like he thinks it's not in his job role or something (which it is)! He even tried to get me to do his work for him earlier! hahahaha, yeah right!

    It wastes my time and drives me crazy, but at the same time, he's really sweet and I feel bad when I have to tell him what to do, but....God...please just let him think for himself for once. He NEVER thinks about things from the client's perspective and it's all important for our company. It's what we pride ourselves on.

    Sorry, rant over!
