meganbmooreDear Credit Card Holders of the U.S.,
A credit card with a high limit and a low APR is not a right, it is a privilege. It's like car insurance, indoor plumbing, a microwave, a chocolate. Kinda awesome to have, but not giving you one is neither inhumane nor a violation. And no, penalties for exceeding your limit or not paying your bill are not uncalled for.
Not, mind you, that credit card companies aren't kind of inherently evil, but try to have a little perspective.
Thankfully, after Monday (which may only be a half day) I won't have to listen to you until June 2.
Love only because you keep me employed,
Me
And now to spend the next few days in a half panic as I try to make sure I remembered to pay all my bills since they're all due when I'll be gone. And try to demolish a small stack of reading stuff.
