Calling a business and getting a phone tree. I am not refering to a  huge company, but an office with 20 or so people.

Our CEO insists that we have a live person answer the phone. And I agree.

people that forward those scammy whatsapp messages.

don't call back 371 numbers, whatsapp charging money, etc.

please do a little bit of research and add a link telling me more. i can't believe people fall for this stuff! and when i tell them that it's a scam i always hear the same answer "i figured but wanted to forward just in case. you never know".

(FTR i know not to call back the 371 numbers cuz it's equivalent to 1-900 numbers. although there is NO WAY for them to get my bank info OR my contact list or any other garbage they're saying)

seriously who types up this sh!t?!
My greatest achievement? I am fluent in FRIENDS quotes

Why do I have to get 2 emails every time I make an online payment on my Chase CCs?

One is the default confirmation and one to let me know they've sent me a secure message.

Level I: asking to slip through the turnstile together at the Mikvah.

Level II: asking to slip through the turnstile together at a Mikvah where I'm not a member and just paid cash.

Level III: asking to slip through the turnstile together at a Mikvah where I'm not a member and just paid cash and not offering to chip in.

Level IIIII: Slipping through without asking. Had it a couple of times already, I am already in the turnstile and all of the sudden it makes a short stop! And I see someone murmling.... Oh I wanna come in with you, hold on...
