Awakening in the Morning

Cloudy and overcast in the mountains. Here we are in Payson, Arizona. Endless task await getting into the new abode. Spent yesterday assembling a desk. Instruction said one hour. Into the third hour the desk is still not put together. 

Kadizzle awakened in the middle of the night to a noise, and could not figure out what it was. There is a small airport within hearing distance. It sounded like someone was reving up the ending of a turboprop ready to take off. The sound persisted and the brain expected the plane to go into the air. Nope, just the sound. Suspicious that it might be coming from the house Kadizzle went into the living room. When he opened the bedroom door the noise stopped. It turned out the noise was from the furnace sucking air through the crack of the bedroom door. 

Kadizzle is cheap, no question about it. He saves a nickle where he can. Today you will get a lecture on banks and credit card companies. Refuse to pay their fees. Kadizzle just avoided $70 in surcharges. Credit card companies pay a lot of money to get a new sucker. Over the years Kadizzle has save hundreds of dollars by calling the credit card companies and telling them to remove late fees. If they have any sense they will remove the charge. With our moving our finances are a mess and things are all mixed up. The bank wanted to charge $39 for an overdraft fee. A mix up caused about a two day delay in the money transfer. The bank removed the fee by simply asking. Now think about it how many billions banks and credit card companies make charging these insane fees. These companies have no compunction about abusing the costumer so why shouldn't the customer fight back? Another case if Verizon. Often because we travel we get terrible internet service. At the end of the call with Verizon they always ask "Is there anything else I can do for you?".  Kadizzle says yes, you can take $25 off my bill for lousy service. Usually they do. Once Kadizzle asked for $25 and they took off $70. You may want to purchase the new book put out by Lord Kadizzle enterprises. The title of the book is " It don't hurt to ask".
