On being late
Posted: Mon Feb 11, 2008 8:15 pm
I forgot to pay my phone bill last month. As a matter of fact, my service was deactivated today because of it.
I got it back in a matter of minutes, after paying the balance and a late fee. I live and breathe personal finance. I’ve never been late on anything ever. It’s embarrassing; it’s expensive. (I actually went on AT&T’s Web site earlier this month to change my plan, but I forgot to pay! I’ve been meaning to set up automatic bill pay ever since I got my credit card, but I put it off!)
I imagine some judgmental old lady tsking me as she processes my payments, as if my payments are actually handled by human beings. Sigh. I guess I shouldn’t care so much, but there are better ways to blow money.
