I am soooooooo annoyed. I went to put a little money in the bank today after work and was very surprised to find an amount that didn't jive at all with what should have been in there (nothing). This concerned me, so I took a look at my online banking. The God damned frigging student loan people, who fucked me over in the first place by not following my request to hold my cheque last month and bounced the damn thing (they've held cheques before when I was late with the money) went ahead and processed the post-dated replacement cheque fully two weeks before the date on the cheque, and then the compound the problem the bank actually ran it through. Don't they bloody well look at the dates on the frigging cheques? Not that the whole reason I'm stuck writing cheques to the Receiver General for my student loan isn't because the bank fucked me over in the first place by misinforming me about which account they were going to take the payments out of. I phoned their marvellous "24-hour bank anytime from home at your convenience" phone number to get this sorted out and got told I had to go into my branch in person. My branch opens an hour after I'm supposed to start work and closes at the same time I usually leave. So considering the time I'm going to miss at work, the fact that I won't have time to walk and will have to pay for downtown parking again tomorrow and the NSF fees this lovely little fuck-up is going to cost me in excess of $100. Fat chance I am going to get much if any of that out of the bank.

Here's todays comic, which considering I scan these in advance is strangely topical.
