CanadaThe Vent - Part Trois
bump back to page one............

and go!
i wish my former stepmother would take care of her business. i'm tired of collection agencies calling me looking for her! she's never been to my house, i've not had contact with her in over 2.5 years, and yet people still call me looking for her because she sucks at paying her bills. :ranting:

We had our Auto insurance with Allstate in Florida, they were great, premiums were good, they accepted our Alberta Driver's Abstradts - all good.

So now we need a letter of experience. I have a lot of Alberta insurance history but my Husband doesn't have as much so in order for us to get the best rate, we need that letter.

I first call Allstate last November - sure np, we will mail that out to you. Nothing arrives. So I call back around January - hmm, we will send it to you!

I call back about a week or so ago - no record of your request, but I will ensure this gets done. Oh you can call us back to double check later if you like. Now it is a week later, so I call back. Yes, it has been requested - but it says "hold for response". I get transferred to another department to find out what that means. What it means it that Allstate does not mail out the letter - they will not - you either have it faxed to you or you don't get one, that simple.

Great.

I have like the least amount of patience for people who call the office lost and who use a GPS.

I wouldn't mind giving directions if people would just shut up about their GPS. Listen, I don't care what your GPS says, I'm letting you know that you've gone the wrong way! Oh but your GPS says what? Well I am telling you to shut the hell up and listen to me.

It's like they call.. tell me their GPS has led them to the wrong place, I'll tell them where to go, and they'll say: "Oh well my GPS says go here.." Fine go there, what do I know? I just live here!

I swear these are the same people who would say in grade school: "Well that's not true because my mom said..."

Sorry I think I have vented about this before but it happens so often why not vent about it one more time! :D

if they can't read a map and can't use a gps properly, maybe they are too dumb to drive?

I quit smoking cigarettes almost 5 years ago. But I didn't really quit completely. I usually will buy a pack once a year and smoke a cigarette. I do it to get sick, and remind myself of how disgusting a habit it is. I will get so nauseated and sick that the mere thought of a cigarette will make me ill even 6 months later.

So, I took my wife to the airport last night for her well overdue trip back home to visit her family. I went to the market after to get a pack of cigarettes. I was absolutely sick when I saw that cigarettes are now $7 in los angeles.

see what taxes do? the same effect and you didn't even have to buy anything! :lol:

In my mind Trailmix is a mouse, Krikit is a green onion with a face and Katherine is anime.

But it's a nice face. A kind face. A happy face. And she has a nice personality, too. It's not all about looks, you know. tongue_ss.gif


Are you the onion on the right or left Krikit? I always picture you as the one on the right


Lol - me too. I picture Krikit with crazy bushwoman hair and a husband with a military style buzz-cut.

i'm so not gonna touch that one. innocent.gif

Here's the "new hairdo" Krikit. Trailmix added it when we were having a conversation about me getting a new hairstyle. I can't remember why we added the lingerie, but I'm sure there must be a thread about it in here somewhere. laughing.gif


whoa krikit's been to victoria's secret. blink.gif

I had several dreams last night and one of them involved you Kathryn! I was in the U.S. (so I don't know why we were doing this) and I wanted to buy books at this book store, so I would transfer the Canadian funds to you and you would pay them in U.S. dollars.

However! You guys then decided to pack up and move back to Canada - so you posted on VJ (I think) that you had done that and I had to go back to the book store and give them new info!

i dreamed krikit and kathryn showed up at my house with a truckload of timbits wub.gif

I didn't dream about VJ last night, but I did have one of the VJ members in a dream about something else. I can't remember for sure who it was, but I think it was Almaty. lol

I dreamt about VJ again last night! :bonk:

It involved people from the Russia and Philippines forums. Let's just say it was a really annoying dream. :lol:

i'm willing to bet it involved warnings and locked threads :lol:

CanadaAuto Insurance in the U.S.

USAA is only available to military and their families. Don't know if your eligible, but they are the greatest insurance company on the planet and get my highest endorsement. Their bank and finalcial products rocks as well.

usaa has recently changed their membership requirements to allow anyone who served in the past with an honorable discharge can now join.
children of former military members can join too.

from what i've seen, the ead isn't worth the paper it's printed on (that's even if you can get the stamp at your poe). you can't work with it.
as for the dl, it depends on what state you are going to.
