    Yes, the 'roundtuit'. A friend of mine had one on his wall. It was a piece of wood, polished, and in the middle was printed 'roundtuit'. He was a great procrastinator with a big 'todo' jar from his wife.

    Sometimes we forget tiny insignificant silly things that bring a chuckle. This was one of them, right ?

    Have a great day, sunny

    Hey everyone. So, maybe someone here might know, I have a gym membership and when I joined they left the membership open so I could cancel it at any time. Well now I called to cancel it because I never use it and they are saying I have to pay a $75.00 cancellation fee if I want to cancel. That wasn't in the contract, do I have to pay that?

    Hey Adam, did you read the very small print to be very sure? If it is not there then call them again and tell them that.

    I would still read the 'cancellation' part very carefully first before you call them again. There may be something that you missed.

    Adam, I had the same thing happen and I told them I was moving so I could waive that fee... LOL

    I have to find the papers that I did sign for the membership. I wanted to check for sure before I called back. If not, I will just pay it and be done with it. I don't go to the gym anymore and I have some equipment at home as well. I don't want them to get angry because the owner is a pretty big guy. Haha

    That is a good idea, haha. I would do that but I already told them I just don't use it enough to pay for it. Then they asked if I knew about the 24 hour access key, and I said yes, but there still isn't time. I thought about cancelling my bank account so they couldn't charge me anymore. Haha

    I guess if your staring at mine your all going to drop dead quicker. I am not by any means well endowed. But I do have a super cute butt.

    You have to love a job when you get paid less then half your normal wage for the week. Bad enough its cash now because he owes back money for something and he took us off the books, this week I get less then half my pay. I get the rest Monday. We all only got half.

    They haven't fill the accounting position yet I interviewed for, please people pray pray pray.

    Keep thinking positive. Allow your Karma to catch up. Your going to get it. Its just a matter of when.

    And yes prayers help too ;)

    Thanks guys. I am not a happy camper. I am sure I have the other job it's a matter of when. It's a new position and they are waiting to get this other new girl comfortable before they bring me in. I am getting a bit cranky waiting.

    Sunny ,

    At least you have something to wait for. Be thankful for that.
    There are a few million people who would love to have even a glimmer of hope.
    You have the link to the real thing! A job that doesn't involve saying " would you like fries with that?"

    I understand how you must feel , I have little patience to wait for most anything. And I start at cranky and plummet fast.

    Hang in there.

    I agree with 100%. I have no problem waiting for the other job. My problem is working for a living and not getting a living. Especially when I watched the business go down for no reasons other then his own stupidity. I am by no means complaining trust me. I am complaining that he has no respect for us employees because I know where he has spent cash all week and it wasn't back in the business. But all us workers only brought home half our pay or less. I am thankful to get that even since the doors didn't get locked.

    Agh... who cares about that. How is everyone else?
