Ah, you guys are slipping.

Send them 87 cents

Quoted:
Pay them with FORTY SEPARATE CHECKS, each made out for ONE CENT.

Demand a SEPARATE receipt, MAILED INDIVIDUALLY, to you, for each check.

40 37 cent stamps costs.... $14.80.

Yeah, that sounds like fair punishment to me.

Or just let them try to take legal action. HOW MUCH do lawyers charge at a minimum again?
And they're willing to pay that? What about filing fees?

The opportunities for fun are almost endless.

CJ

Classic. Best suggestion so far.

Agreed. It'd be great if you mustered the face to ask for this . . . and then asked to use their head.

motown_steve, can we get a follow up on this situation? Where you stand with your $0.40 debt?

How did you resolve the problem, and the washing machine?

Quoted:
40 pennies, get them real dirty.
Walk them into the office and have them count them out in front of you.
Then demand a recept. Dont leave with out it.
Also request that a letter be made by them stating that you are now current on the rent.
They can mail the letter to you if you are in a hurry.

That ought to be worth more than the .40.

Yes. This would be good.

I want to know how you ended up owing .40 cents.
Don't do anything rash, save your anger for the day you move.
Revenge is a dish served cold (and after you have gotten your deposit check back).

So the way I figure, everyone who I meet has handled a penny that has been in MY ass!

That was some fine profanity. I would try to work "Douche Bag" into your vocabulary a bit more, though.

+1 on the fine profanity, but I prefer assclowns.

I had a hospital send me a bill for $.005. Yes, that's $.005 - one nickel!!

The stamp cost more than the bill. I rushed right over and paid it requesting a receipt.
Not only did it cost them for the stamp and envelope but the cost of the receptionists time and paper.

What idiots! They would've saved more to just write it off.

The update to this story is very anti-climactic. I called and left a message with their answering service saying that I wanted to talk to someone about the letter ASAP. The manager called me back two days later and apologized profusely. She said that she didn't know how my account was short $.40, and that the form letter that was used shouldn't have been used. When I explained to her that I had only been there for about 2 weeks she started studdering and mumbling and basically didn't know what to say. I wrote them a check for the $.40 though.

Throw in phrases like "donkey raping shiteater", "pinko commie loving faggot asspirate" and "shitfaced cockmaster", mix it up with some R. Lee Ermey stuff from Full Metal Jacket, and you should be good to go

Not to take away from your excellent turn of phrase, Bob, but "commie-loving" should definitely be hyphenated (if not capitalized; see "Commie-"). "Donkey raping," "shiteater," and "shitfaced" are all on the fence, depending on intended usage.

Sorry, just thought I'd be a "Grammar/Punctuation Schindler" before the real "Grammar/Punctuation Nazis" showed up.

1. Not much advice for the truck deal, except have them look at the gas gage with you when you turned it in.
2. "Payroll problem"? Are you sure they didn't "fix the glitch"?
3. $.40 ? There have already been some funny ass posts. Seriously though, if you just moved in, don't you have a receipt or the cashed check? That should show you paid in full. They sound like bitches and I'd just move out ASAP.

Great Office Space reference. 1000 points for you my friend.
