Well at the top of the list of things I need, a laptop is, once again, number one.

I don’t know how or why but mine won’t turn on or react when I plug in the charger.

Happy Easter to me.

So, long story time now.

I work full time. I get paid just above the shit level, but still I get paid shit. I don’t make a lot of money so I pinch pennies and it makes me get the most of my money. Thrifting, small meals, using coupons and using my team member/special debit card to get my 15% at work. The problem is, the special debit card is attached to my real debit card and it takes a few days to clear. Understandable. Which is why I don’t use it when I have less than $100 in my real account (unless what I’m going to buy, for example lunch, is less than $5).

But my bank has incredibly inaccurate online banking. The pending isn’t accurate and they actually manipulate the account in order to charge overdraft fees. They put the largest transaction through first (because it’s considered the most important  and the actual balance that it shows I have isn’t correct. So now I’m overdrawn. Because when I should have had about $10 left, I actually had $0. The lunch that I bought, the water I bought, all put me in the negative. And so did the charges that I used with my special debit card that said they cleared on online banking.

They charge $36 per every NSF (no sufficient funds) transaction that clears. I’ve had 6 now, I think. If you take away the fees, I’m overdrawn by $27.  Add the overdraft fees, I’m at $279

I’m almost at $300 at overdraft fees right now and I don’t get paid until Friday. I’m not even getting paid $400 this week. I will have no money. I have loans to pay. 

I’ve called the bank and they said they I should call the bank back after 3 because that’s when the newest fees will post, the ones that make me -$279 and that we can talk about waiving them.

If they don’t waive them, I’m screwed, My check is direct deposited. I don’t expect them to waive all of the fees, I overdrafted and of course a fee is necessary—even if it’s partly the banks fault—but leave one or two, not 6. Please don’t do this to me.

I really do believe that come the end of February, that I will either be the last one standing in Indiana who isn’t pregnant.

Or be pregnant. 

Out of all the things that I could have accomplished on my day off, all I did was do laundry.

I need help from some of my followers.

So yesterday at work I got a call from someone. Not an electronics call, where they call for electronics and I answer, but a call specifically for me. Which is inherently weird considering I’m not a manager or anything. 

So when I pick it up, thinking it’s maybe Tony needing to talk to me or my parents, it’s not. It’s a guy who’s “partner” (business partner) was exceptionally pleased with my work and I how I helped him and he wants to meet me to learn more about me. He asked me if I was happy with my job at Target, if I was interested in a different career path and that he too has background in retail. He asked to meet me in a public place on a main road (Starbucks at noon). 

Nowhere in the conversation did he say what his business was or the name. I only have his name and his number.

My question is to you all, should I go?

Obviously, I’m not going to go alone. Tony would be with me if I go. And, I am happy where I work, but if I could get a job somewhere that would lead to a career (especially since I don’t have a degree) would be amazing. But I don’t want to be tricked or anything of that sort. 

I left college a year ago today.

Know what love is?

Trying to wake up your boyfriend by rolling into bed and he instinctively puts his arms around you.

And then pushes you off the bed to sleep for “10 more minutes”.

I haven’t been home in a few days.

It doesn’t feel like home here and I can’t stand to sleep here, eat here or even be here.

It’s so full of negativity.
