Truthful Tuesday

 

I really hate making phone calls. So if I can get things done with an app or online, I'm here for that. What I don't understand is why you have the option of scheduling something through an app, only to get a call telling me that they are already booked that day. Why have the app if it's not updated? Case in point. I tried very hard to be very productive yesterday. I caught up on all the laundry (which had gotten pretty backed up), organized the holiday gift chaos, ordered holiday cards (and stamps!), scheduled the oil change for my car, and did my PT workout. I thought I had succeeded in all of those things. I got text AND email confirmation for the oil change appointment even. Alas, this morning, the dealership called (my oil changes are still covered so I prefer to go there for the free ones) saying they are booked up for the rest of the month. Guys. The app showed tons of availability. Why do they not keep that shit updated? Just turn off the option on the app if they can't actually make it work. Sheesh. So not a total failure. I did get it scheduled for next month instead. I suppose instead this month I'll get the truck in for everything it needs.... It also needs an oil change, but also has several recalls on it. And it's once again dead in the driveway. So I suppose I should get that sorted. Maybe tomorrow...

And that, my friend's, is today's confession: I like to put things off until I am completely overwhelmed by too many things, and then I get them all done at once.

  1. Had to get on the dealer's schedule for a recall during the pandemic . . . wouldn't recommend. If it runs, it's fine, right? Lol

    1. You're a better vehicle owner than I! I let those recalls stack right up during the pandemic! Lol! And now there's like six of them that need addressing. Oops.

    1. Ugh! That's terrible! That's the worst case scenario. Having to actually talk to people and then it all for nothing!
