Royal Pain

They said it was going to be simple .... easy and pain-free.

To me that means plugging in one cable without having to get on my hands and knees and contort any body parts.

No installing phone apps, scanning qr codes, locating small print serial numbers and creating new logins.

I'm of the age and general disposition where those things are giant hassles.

Had I known it was going to be a royal pain-in-the-ass, I would have told them to shove their new equipment up their ass and just let me continue my life with my lesser equipment.

I'm not noticing the difference anyway.

And they said it's free .... no increase in my bill.

You know because I'm such a good customer and they want to do something nice for me.

Well, no increase for now maybe.

We'll see what happens in six months. 

If that all holds true or they sneak a hidden increase in then.

I may be naive but I'm not that naive to blindly believe them without possessing a major amount of suspicion and skepticism.

And now to uninstall that phone app.

At least my Eggo waffles don't need s stinkin' qr code and phone app.

And while I'm bitching .....

Why do I keep getting these mailers every few weeks informing me that I can get auto insurance for $20 more a month than I'm currently paying?

And how did it get to be midnight already?
