We need a karma fix!!

Do you believe in Karma? I do, and sometimes mine is really bad. It makes me wonder exactly how I ventured off of the good Karma track and onto the "lets see how bad we can screw up things without doing major stuff Karma'. Last week one of those screwed up weeks.

First, I am STILL waiting for my XM radio to be connected. Apparantly with the XM/Sirius merger XM had to make some updates and it just so happened that when we tried to connect my new radio on Monday, it got sent to some outer space satellite station where unconnected radio setups go to die or something and I am in a "pending state". Until who knows when... XM isnt really upset about it, and they credited us for an entire month of service, so here I sit with a $200 investment that I cannot use. grrrrr

Second, our paychecks are ALL messed up. Our one payroll clerk (how can you only have ONE payroll clerk for an entire hospital????) has screwed up my paycheck THREE times since January! This week was the third time. She failed to pay me for 49 hours of differential. Not a huge fact but a couple hundred dollars that is figured into our weekly budget, especially at the beginning of the month. She never works on payday (last Friday) go figure... I have a call in to her.

Danas check is even more messed up, his employer failed to pay him for 48 hours!!!! Now this is a biggie. HELLO... we are talking an entire weeks pay here folks!! He will be dealing with them today, I am not sure if they had their heads in the sand or what when they did his pay. where do these incompetant people come from????

Breannas check was also short... 12 hours. Thats a chunk for her. This is the 2nd time her check has been wrong since June. Again, incompetance...

Third, yesterday when I got up our cable TV was all messed up. I finally got it fixed by a phone call to Bresnan.

I am pretty certain there is some kind of electronic Karma adjustment that needs to be done asap. Next thing to go down is our cell phones...

I have some friends who have decided that the way to break bad Karma is to run naked wearing a flaming boa. I might have to go boa shopping today. LOL

And how is your week??

Naked running with a boa? Take pics!

Shmoops is discharged 8/8 and will most likely be home 8/10.

No party - not in a celebrating mood. :(

I hope.

A flaming boa you say? Well if it works...let me know;)

Michelle said...

Flaming Boa? Wanna borrow mine? Just kidding. I never heard that one but if you do it be sure and wait until your Flip gets there so Dana can film it.

Sending good karma thoughts your way that things get fixed soon.

I can SO identify with messed up pay systems. Just as I thought Michael was in the clear they have suspended his Tricare insurance because they *oops* forgot to update his orders that are now until 30 September. Do these people that do these screwups EVER think about the people on the other end? Or put THEMSELVES in their place?

I would probably screw the karma up forever if I ran around naked...some things just shouldn't be exposed to innocent people...lol Keeping you in my prayers.

As my husband the sailor often says... Life can be a sh*# sandwich, some days you have more bread, some days you have more....
I'm wishing you a yummy roasted turkey with provolone, crisp lettuce and fresh tomato on pumpernickle sandwich kind of day!
Please pray with me for those stars which have turned gold.
