So, around heres, you gotta pay $145 a month to park in the building. Back in November, I had hr/accounting start deducting it from my biweekly paychecks automatically so I wouldn't have to deal with it anymore, but alas, they did not. I notice of course, but say nothing.
4 months later, they catch me. As well as a few others. The others though are caught on 100-200 charges, while mine is a massive 560. Of course, I was smart and knew they'd catch it sooner or later, so I just shoved it in my ING. But of course, for some reason, they miss it AGAIN the next paycheck. I go around asking the others who haven't been paying for parking and they all got a bite taken out of their checks, but not me. So, this time, since its obvious I knew about it, I didn't wanna play dumb, and went to them and told em. This was 2 weeks ago.
Fast forward to today, a nice chunk of $652.50 was taken out of my paycheck for parking. This is a nice chunk, but it wasn't my money in the first place, but I didn't think much of it at first, until a few minutes ago, down in the convenience store, buying a soda.
As I was paying, the total came down to a $1.07 (typo, it was 50 cents each, so this was the total after second pepsi). Doing some quick math, I realized that the postponed parking payments netted me probably in the realm of 2 dollars, plus. Seeing this, I grabbed, you guessed it, ANOTHER PEPSI! I walked outa that store like I was king of the world.
Iono, maybe I'm feeling a little smug about 2 bucks (pepsis were a business expense), or the fact taht any of my friends probably woulda spent all the money and then now woulda been strapped for cash.
Pics!!
Cliffs:
Payroll mistake
Put into ING instead of spending
???
Profit!! (and free pepsi!)
EDIT: To Clarify, the sodas cost 50 cents each, and I'm too fvcken lazy to find cheaper parking elsewhere and walk a couple blocks to work. That, and the only public transportation from where I live (Davis) to downtown Sacramento is once an hour, and would take me another hour and a half every morning to take. Judging from how much I make, it'd cost me over a grand in time every month to take such public transportation taking into account it'd take another hour and a half home.
