Rant 😤

I’ve been (unwillingly) using H&R Block for years (ever since Turbo Tax jacked up their prices) and this is the first year I tried to use it on a Mac. Paid for the Deluxe but the software wants me to buy the State package again. Their representative’s “fix” - install on Windows. #WTF 🤬

😡 …and this is why I do my best to avoid using Windows. Upon a restart I was greeted with this “lovely” advertisement.

NO, I do not want to give you more money or data, why are you asking…I already have a backup solution…and just to make sure that you’re “really sure” they ask you again. 😱

It’s never fun driving on snowy roads (especially when the snow is still coming down) but I’m so glad I spent the extra money to get all-wheel drive for my new car. Some person nearly sideswiped me while they were putting on makeup (who does that?!) but my car handled it just fine. ❄️🚗💄

Experiencing the oddest tech issue of my life: my Mac Air won’t connect to some domains, including ”captive.apple.com” which means I can’t get on this crappy hotel WiFi. 😭🤷 It might be time for a nuke ‘n pave… 😱

I haven’t had to worry about insurance for a couple years now, my current employer had the best plan I’ve ever seen. Found out this week my company is being “merged” with another (aka, we’re being acquired) and our insurance costs are going to sky rocket. 😱😤😭 #Screwed #FirstWorldProblems

Ah, nothing like getting the rug pulled out from under you during the Holiday season @ work.

Yes, I’m the kind of person who will call and spend hours on the phone to dispute an improper bill for a doctor visit, no matter how many times your systems “accidentally” hangs up on me. 🤣😮‍💨😤

I weep for the future but at the rate we’re going and the decisions we keep making, one wonders if our species deserves to continue existing. 😮‍💨

I truly hate the car buying experience. 😭

Feels like it should be an hour later than it is right now…oh, right… 😮‍💨

Oh how I hate coming into the Apple Store (selling back my Apple Watch); I don’t know why they hate lines but when you’re told to go stand “by that table” and then no one comes to help you, it’s incredible frustrating. 😮‍💨 ⌚️

My insurance wouldn’t refill a prescription, so Walgreens offered to fill it for me without insurance…the price: $256. 💊 The same medication / dosage at Costco: $10. 😱😡😤 Gotta love healthcare in ‘Murica. 🇺🇸

Congratulations Apple, I will never again buy AirPods from you.

Apple: “it just works." …until it doesn’t and then you have to fight tooth and nail to get ahold of anyone who will actually help you. 😱

Trying to get my legal affairs in order (aka, a will and medical power of attorney)…and a law office I talked with wanted a $10,000 deposit / retainer. 😱 WTF…it’s just a few hours of work, my life isn’t that complicated… 😮‍💨
