I guess that they&#8217;re magically paid, I thought.  But no, they aren&#8217;t!  I am now very pissed.  <\/p>\n<p>I sent an email to Rachel, saying hello just being polite here, say hello to everyone, did you know that the payment hasn&#8217;t been made?<\/p>\n<p>Oh no problem, she said, I&#8217;ll take care of it right away.<\/p>\n<p>Maybe I shouldn&#8217;t have been using the corporate card.  Maybe someone with an ego didn&#8217;t ask the right questions and instead just take a risk.<\/p>\n<p>I almost thought about not paying that insurance stuff earlier, but then I thought: I am being a good employee.  The only punishment that they would inflict on me would be yes removing coverage but also denying my right to work with them again.<\/p>\n<p>it&#8217;s completely ridiculous.<\/p>\n<p>I am not sure if I regret making the decision to work there.  I was drawn by the prestige.  The brand had so much promise.  But the moment that I arrived, I knew something was off.  Just wait it out.  Then I couldn&#8217;t.  Especially not with the manager.<\/p>\n<p>So I received yet another statement that says LATE PAYMENT.  I have never made a late payment in my life.  is my credit score ruined?  Not a big deal.  But then I worried.  Maybe it is!<\/p>\n<p>Online, it said, maybe yes or maybe no.  It bugged.  So I wrote a nasty email of course outlining everything with tersely worded statements.  I am pissed!  I am pissed!<\/p>\n<p>Take care of this, because this is out of my hands.<\/p>\n<p>i did at one point did think: I could pay this three hundred something dollars.  But I am like no way.  But then again. then again.<\/p>\n<p>is it worth the ding in my credit score?<\/p>\n<p>I already had decided that I didn&#8217;t want to buy a house.  So the mortgage is likely far away.  But I don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n<p>An entity ruined it.  And it&#8217;s not my fault.  It isn&#8217;t my fault.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Feeling seriously annoyed.
