the saga continues

Well, I called the bank and at first they said the charges weren't even in their system but then they found what I was talking about and since I was trying to do this between seeing patients, I told the teller that I had to call them back and so she said that was fine since they would look into it and have it figured out by the time I was planning on calling back. So I called back but every time I called, she was on the phone or away from her desk . So I left a message for her to page me when she was able to talk and nothing. So i called one last time and I got the machine yet again. I guess I'll call back tomorrow. My balance isn't messed up like it was so maybe they fixed it. Argh! I guess I'll pay with cash or check in the future to avoid such a problem but I probably will forget and use the card again. At least my afternoon clinic wasn't busy. For some bizarre reason I had a full 40 minute open spot plus someone didn't show up so I got to work on my notes from the am clinic patients and just finished my last note 5 minutes ago here at home. Next month I'll be at Pacific City doing clinic there. That will be nice...no call since I didn't get hospital priveleges and I told them that I wanted to be a faster, more efficient clinic doctor. Dinner time

I'll let you know what becomes of the $300 mayhem

Oh and one of our residents had her baby yesterday. I got him an Ugly Doll. They are very cute weird looking stuffed toys that Melissa turned me on to. I may get one for Payton.

The idiot

Well, the person who ran my debit card through for my doctor's visit on friday fucked something up. She was supposed to enter $15.00 but initially entered in $150.00. She then claimed to void it and I do have a receipt showing a void but then she also crumpled up a bunch of other slips and tossed those. I should have asked what those slips are but didn't think about it. Well, today I was balancing my checkbook and online I see 2 charges for $150.00! I don't see any evidence of voiding either and my balance is $300 less than what it should be indicating that that money was deducted from my account! And of course there's no one to talk to until monday when I'm going to be busy in clinic. And I just forsee getting my $300 back being a big hassle. My next half day off is wednesday but I think the moron who made the original mistake isn't going to be able to simply credit my card back, nor do I care to hand her my card again lest she completely wipe my account out. So I guess on monday I'll check my online bank statement and if my fears are confirmed that I was charged $300 more than the $15.00 I actually needed to pay, then I'll start harassing the business office. I want my fucking money back now!!!
