OMG, the nerve of some people. Excuse me while I vent for a moment! 
I get a call yesterday from this company called MFA or something Collections while standing in line for my Grandparent's medicine in the crazied Walgreens. She tells me she is calling about an X-Ray bill I owe, about $100.00 I think. I tell her very nicely BTW that I am very busy preparing for the Hurricane (she knows about it she tells me, she lives in Tampa), and that I would call them ASAP on Monday to talk about this but I just couldn't right now. She says I'm sorry and it's ok to call then, I ask her to note my account since they are calling my cell and I don't want to waste minutes on this.
Fast Forward two hours later, I get ANOTHER call, different lady, same place. I tell her the same thing as before, still calm and still nice. I let her know that as of this point in time I don't know what I can do since I am evacuating tomorrow and need to get a lot done. I'm sorry but X-ray bills are the last thing on my mind. She tells me she will note this and not call again till next week.
Well needless to say as I'm sure you can tell from my topic title these people have called 10x's since. Five of which I answered between boarding up my house, chasing down the cat to board her and our dogs, packing, making insurance lists, trying to find supplies, etc. I've been called in Walmart, at the gas station, while I'm trying to sleep, etc. I've been nice everytime, except this afternoon, I told the lady that we are very close to the predicted landfall and I'm VERY busy, can't this wait till Monday?!?! Please don't call me again till then. She agreed and AGAIN agreed to note my account.
Fast Forward 10 minutes ago, Ring Ring... who do you think it is. My god don't these people get the point? I go off this time, I in a loud and stern voice tell this guy named Apo or whatever that I'm evacuating, packing, etc PLEASE do not call me AGAIN. He then says to me, we don't have your # in our system, to which I reply, well you sure must, you've called it 20 times! He then finds it, explains to me that because I've not promised to make payment or left a CC # they will keep calling, I tell him it's the last thing I'm paying right now. He says to me well he pretty much doesn't care, he needs a commitment, I tell him I'm not comiting to this not knowing wether or not I'll have a house to come home to Sunday. He laughs, tells me Whatever, and then tells me well he will be calling again, to this I tell him to have a nice *$*$*$* day and hung up. Oh my nerves are shot, needed to vent. Sorry..lol!
I wish there was something I could do, maybe send the Hurricane over his house and his house only!
