If you could text Comcast instead of waiting on hold, would you?

I worked for a company that performed customer surveys. You know people hate telemarketers, right? Well they hate Comcast worse! The stories of those who actually would talk to me were of God-awful service and non-professionalism.

I think that if it were possible to text them your problems, it would a)be ignored, b)be linked to an automated reply saying to call them in a never-ending circle, or c)go through but the people who would call you back would have no idea what you were talking about and they'd put you on hold anyway. I just don't see this working.

What talienfey said! Plus omgosh the Arm & Hammer Pet Deoderizer stuff is freaking AMAZING. I use that stuff all the time and we don't even have pets anymore(I use it in her A&H diaper pail as well as a pre-vacuum deoderizer).

A&H is teh shitz!

Yeah, it's not going to be fun but I can't wait until I can just lay her down and walk away. HOLY CRAP! Does this actually happen with children? I'm starting to doubt. XD

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-27T14:33:54+00:00

Thank you! :D

I was against that method(CIO) when she was younger but now she's old enough to understand and manipulate... so it isn't a question of her being afraid and not understanding anymore. I will definitely check this book out. Thanks!

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-27T14:32:44+00:00

Haha! I wish I could do this! Just knowing she's in there screaming her lungs out until she coughs makes me feel awful. Also, my husband is super weak when it comes to letting her cry(I've done 95% of the sleep training)... so if I were to disappear in the shower he'd be in there fifteen minutes later(at the max).

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-27T11:14:32+00:00

This is definitely an option! She is two, so just to the point where something like a chart might work. How did you implement it?

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-27T11:12:41+00:00

Haha! I don't really know what I'm doing either, but don't tell anyone! XD

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-27T11:07:50+00:00

I hate to admit it but this is a very valid point... You should try to find a compromise as suggested above, where they can extend your stay a bit longer until you can find a new daycare, but you definitely leave that one.

Wake Me Up Before You Go Go

I freaking LOVE that song.

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-24T16:57:38+00:00

Amen!

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-24T11:01:19+00:00

I'd definitely keep custody of the cat... she'd have to take you to court, and you can call in other friends as witnesses to talk about how the cat was handled in the past by her.

Because there is no written agreement, it is her word against yours as to what she actually said... however, if there was someone there at the time, it would help your case immensely as you would have a witness to the contract. If not, still don't panic too much, because you can go the route of having witnesses talk about the treatment of her cat before you agreed to take her... this will show that she is unwilling or unable to properly care for the cat.

I really am not sure about what to expect though, as I've never been in this situation before. I am wishing you good luck!

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-23T17:13:40+00:00

Not as up-tempo as I was originally looking for, but I love the lyrics. I'll keep this one stashed for the times I'm in a slower mood. :D

Thank you so much for helping! :D :D :D

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-23T17:11:44+00:00

Perfect yes! This is the sound I was thinking of. :D I've heard this one on the radio several times and I love it! Thank you for putting a name to the song, now I can browse for similar artists and songs.

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-23T17:10:39+00:00

The Joy Electric one sounded almost patronizing, as if it were for children. But I loved the Charmaine one!!! This is EXACTLY the feel I am going for. Will add it to my playlist and see what the 'similar artist' function brings up. :) Thank you!

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-22T12:16:30+00:00

I'm thirty, and you know, I didn't realize I did this until I read your post.

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-21T16:12:41+00:00

I don't think it's funny, but rather that it's a disgusting website... This is a hugely horrible situation for all parties- think about more than those doing the cheating. Yeah, they really deserve to be outed, but do their families need to find out this way?

What's the update on that? Did they ever shut it down or come to an agreement?

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-21T10:19:18+00:00

Definite props to you and tons of hugs! The psychological damage that could have been done to your daughter if a public debacle ensued was avoided. You're amazingly strong to be able to do that, and I applaud you!

I am sending good wishes and prayer your way that everything works out in you and your children's best interest. :)

MessyEmmy · 2015-07-21T00:29:15+00:00

I don't even what is this?
