I mailed my tax payments in today

I owed a little over $100 to the city and state that I live in. I get a small refund for federal taxes so I just sit the money in my bank account and pay my taxes with that. I have my exemptions set at 2 or 3 so the amount that I get back […]

Tuition reimbursement denied again!

I already talked about the fact that my last few classes are the hardest to get done. Now I find out that my tuition reimbursement is denied again. This is really starting to get my goat. I knew one class was questionable as far as tuition reimbursement but I thought the other class would get […]

I really don’t like one of my coworkers

What makes it worse is that she’s a work-leader. She seems to be a really nit-picky type of person. I notice that she stays on one guys back all of the time. I came from a area where everyone basically got along and we really didn’t have anyone like her to deal with.
I just stay […]

I changed my tax allowances

I changed my with-holdings from 1 to 2. I get a refund every year so changing my with-holdings will just make me get a smaller refund. If I didn’t want to get one at all, I would change the number to 4. However since I have side income and pay taxes on interest and dividends I […]

I almost paid more in taxes than I got paid

Taxes and benefits were equal to 30% of my gross pay. My benefits were just about 7% including medical and 401k. The rest went to the million and one taxes that I have to pay. In PA, we pay state, local and school taxes. I can’t wait to move to FL where the taxes are […]

Spam, spam and more spam

I apologize if you’ve left a comment in the past few days. I’ve gotten so much spam that I’m not even reading through the comments. I’m just going in and deleting them. I hope that by marking them all as spam that it will discourage the spammers and eventually block their ip address.

I can’t get an advising appointment

I just started my new job and I really didn’t want to take off yet. That won’t be a problem because I can’t get an advising appointment until mid-April. I told my adviser that I’m not registering for graduation because I may still have 1 class to complete. I plan on waiting until after my […]

No shopping for me

Not for a while anyway. I had to pay over $600 for my car to be fixed yesterday. That was just about the amount of my income tax return. John wanted to use his money to buy electronics. He wanted a XBox 360 or a Bose home theater. I had planned on using my money […]

Another training program at work

Ugh I hate these things. We have these computerized training simulations that we have to do. Each one is once a year but we have about 5 or 6 to do. It seems like every other month we have one of these to do. They’re boring and long which is why most of us dislike […]

I hope I get a tax refund

I’m still waiting on 1 w-2 in order to be able to do my taxes for last year. I think I will just squeak out a federal refund. I know I will owe the state because I always owe them a few dollars. They tax interest and dividends so that’s what I generally owe money […]

Work is so busy

We’ve been so busy for the past week and a half at work. There have been quite a few people that have been off sick. We have enough people to cover their work but that puts the rest of us behind. There’s this crazy strain of the flu going around and I think almost half […]

It’s time for my annual review at work

Yeah, not. These things are so bogus. They tell you what they want you to accomplish for this year and what you accomplished last year. You have to go in and give yourself at least 3 tasks to complete by the end of the year. It’s so stupid. There aren’t 3 things that I can […]
