Oh boy, do I hate the new "hey we'll just send your money through every 3 days screw actually being able to do it yourselves, fucknuts" policy.

So yesterday I clicked on the little payment schedule box and began the process but stopped when I realized that they wouldn't let me pick the day of the week of the transfers (I wanted mine to be on Thursdays). My plan was to set it up this Thursday, but now it won't let me accept any new hits until I finish setting up my payment schedule, so if I want to work between now and Thursday I have no choice but to set it up....I guess I'm going to be getting paid on Tuesdays now

I wonder if I can go in to manage payments on Thursday and redo it and have it update to pay me on Thursdays.....

 

[MinkyMona]

From what I've read you can't stop the payment update process or back out and start again once you've clicked the continue button.

Have you tried calling payments? Usually they actually pick up the phone. Maybe they can change schedule day? If anyone does, please let us know. Also... CHOICE LABS PLEASE COME BACK!!

I did a quick push through of the tiny amount I had ready to go to my bank, then set it up (having to change my BANK info to match my fucking AMAZON name, FFS), and then realized that I had $4.20 (did not intend for that) in limbo between the Dashboard and Amazon Payments...which I can no longer access. I have no idea if that $4.20 even exists any more.

I'm gonna wait til Thursday and see if it will let me change it. If not I'm gonna give them a call because I really prefer getting my money for Fridays.

They haven't even delayed school. There's close to an inch out there now and it will snow all through the commute (5-7 inches).

Pooh.

Two of my kids go to one school, which is cancelled, and my oldest daughter still has school and she is a new driver so I'm debating whether or not to drive her myself. My husband thinks that if I don't let her drive in the snow she'll never learn, which I get, but still I'm not ready.

Morning. Ride with her. It will let you observe her, give her a learning experience, and let you know she makes it safe.

I like that idea! It's barely snowing yet so I'm gonna go with her in her car and drive it home then drive it back to pick her up and let her drive with me in the car. It should really be coming down by the time school gets out.

Well, well, well ... I won't tell you now much snow the buses had to go through when I was a kid, nor how much it took to get school called off.
