Incompetency

Not sure if I really have an audience out there, but if I do, I strongly discourage you from signing up with Time Warner Cable. I've had such an awful experience with them over the past couple of weeks, I would not recommend them to anyone! I'm too lazy to type my experience with them this evening I'm just going to cut and paste what I typed on facebook.

"Time Warner Cable is officially the most incompetent company I have ever worked with. I called them to find out why they were so late and apparently someone came to my house and discovered the cable is in a neighbors yard and left. They said the neighbor wasn't home to get permission. I did not rcv a call like I was supposed to, they did not knock on my door to inform me. I have been home since 3:30 PM waiting on them. I didn't even know they were here! Now I have to wait on them again tomorrow from 4-7. RIDICULOUS!"

I didn't mention this before, but I was planning to have my cable cut off tonight, and the cable equipment picked up. I will save over $80.00 a month, so it was an easy disconnection. I don't watch it anyway. I realized this when the cable box in my living room stopped working 2 weeks ago and I never called the company to tell them about it. I still got basic cable in my bedroom without a box, so I wasn't that distraught. That's when I knew I was wasting my money. My dad gave me his HD antenna, so I can pick up a handful of channels over the air. I'm excited to get all basic news channels, in addition to, the Retro TV station and COOL TV which plays music videos and such. I also get FOX and THE CW! FOR FREE! I'm set. :) I'm really happy with my decision to cancel. I have NETFLIX and recently purchased an Xbox with the KINECT, so I'm not at a loss for entertainment. I'm going to put the extra $80.00 a month onto my car loan and hopefully I will be able to pay it off a year early. It will be nice to get rid of that payment in time for my college loan payments to begin. WooHoo! :( FML

So, I got a snow day on Friday which was super fantastic! I ended up doing laundry and cleaning, but it was nice to get it out of the way, so I could enjoy my Saturday....uh....waiting on Time Warner Cable. FML

Had a fantastic day shopping with my Aunt Dee at Sams Club. I ran into a lot of people I knew, so that was fun. I bought some snacks for my kiddos and my Aunt bought me some Krispy Kreme donuts and bagels. I don't need either of them, but she gave them to me, so I couldn't say no. :)

I'm excited to curl up on the couch tonight with a good movie and some popcorn. Church in the morning, and then who knows? Maybe some homework before Time Warner attempts to do their job again.

OH YEAH! Almost forgot....

Last weekend was quite adventurous for me! I drove to IKEA, JUNGLE JIMS and then to INDIANA to the HOLLYWOOD CASINO. It was nice to have a mini road trip. I had some "me" time and won $128.00. LOL! :)

Good times...
