I am fuming, and I have been for two days now. The company I contract with (Paper Xpress, owned by Maritime-Ontario) forced us from cheque to direct deposit, no option. This is already complete crap, but they've been handling it even worse. They told us all when they brought this up initially, that nothing would change, we'd still be paid the same as normal. Well, this has turned out to be a LIE. Up until now, we were paid on Tuesdays, and our cheque was ready for us at the depot when we arrive (at 2 AM). The first direct deposit payment came at 9:35 PM Tuesday night. That was brushed off as 'circumstances beyond our control' as per the memo. Umm, the memo said nothing like that, it just said that our pay would be deposited by midnight Tuesday. (Which we assumed meant that our money would be accessible at the same time on Tuesday morning). The second deposit came at around 7:00 PM Tuesday night, which was a bit of an improvement, at least all the stores hadn't already closed. They say third time's the charm, but not in this case! It is now Wednesday at 2:40 PM and I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN PAID! |

Tomorrow we're headed down to St. Thomas to take Nicholas to another Day out with Thomas. This is going to be our second year going down there, and our second Day out with Thomas this year. (We went to Medina, NY back in May for the other one). It's amazing that something like this can make a little kid so incredibly happy. I mean, he absolutely lives and breathes Thomas the Tank Engine, 24 hours a day, but I've never seen him as happy as when he's at these events. You can see for yourself, check out our Day out with Thomas photo gallery. There's also some brief stories about our experiences with these events, if you're interested in taking your little ones to one yourself. You can even add your own Thomas photos if you've been to one of these events yourself, and want to share your experience.

So it was announced yesterday that eBay is increasing the Stores listing and final value fees again, and dramatically so. Naturally, Store sellers are hopping mad and I see lots of people closing their stores already, even though the increase isn't due to take effect until August 22nd. OK, sure I understand being completely pissed but you still have time to use the site to liquidate, or gain a few more customers for your off-eBay sites, if that's really what you're planning to do.
