05:33 pm: I Hate WaMu
Before I get started here, let me be absolutely clear that it's not just WaMu, but pretty much all financial institutions that I despise.  I understand that screwing their customers over is how they make their money, but in what world is a $34 overdraft fee for a $10 overdraft actually proportional?  Furthermore, when you have the money back in the account before the fee is even assessed, how is that even legitimate?

The best part is talking to the people.  The service reps are fine, but when even the manager is telling you that they can't remove the fee because there was no "bank error," that's when you realize that, despite the organic tissue, you're still talking to a fucking machine.

Maybe it's my own clouded naive view that we should treat each other like human beings, but to some of us, a $34 fee is actually significant, and it hurts us.  The irony is that the ones who are hurt by it are usually the ones that get stuck with it, since happy rich boy on his mountain up there doesn't have to live paycheck to paycheck, so he doesn't have to worry about shit like this.

Sometimes, I just really hate the world.

I've probably paid over $500 in overdraft fees within this last year... I feel your pain.
