who’s got two thumbs, $461 less in his bank account and is entertaining thoughts of arson?

oh cool verizon took so fucking long to send my final statement, I missed the window for t-mobile to pay off the rest of my phone.

add verizon to the list with ticketmaster of companies I hope get destroyed by a fucking meteor.

"Hey there Christian, this is Kayla from Verizon. I just wanna let you know checking up on because our call seemed to drop early when we're having a conversation regarding about your bill. Thank you so much. God bless and have a great day."

spent three fucking minutes trying to navigate verizons fucking phone tree. you have to listen to the entire "if you want x press y" for SEVEN GODDAMN ITEMS before it would let you choose. you can't interrupt. and every time it'd kick me back to the beginning and I'd have to start over.

JEBUS FUCKING CHRIST.

verizon sends me a notice of my final bill. it doesn't include my account number. you need the account number to log in since they shut off your account. their idiotic fucking QAI chat keeps asking me for it and won't let me talk to a fucking person.

it shaved several years off my life but they’re the shitty years at the end so it alright. little hungover, but I think that’s more stress than beer, I only had four over the entire five hour game.

honestly they could have avoided so much stress by just letting him win the first time
