re: #8 Feline Fearless Leader

From the “This is horribly stupid, but accounting says the numbers have to match” Department.

Friends of mine moved as a result of damage to their rented home by Sandy. Since they closed out their utilities they got a pro-rated refund from the gas company.

A check for $0.02. That cost $0.45 for postage to mail. And not even going into the additional processing costs and so forth just cutting and mailing the check.

Just think of the hilarity if the power carrier sent them a BILL for $0.02.
