American Express Green Card and Plum
As a small business owner, I started using AMEX Plum for all of my purchases when I began the business in early 2009. I have used the green card for personal use for 20 years and always paid on time.
Recently, I was running late on the personal card and called to explain that I would be paying but needed time...and asked to be on a finance plan. I was told-we don't do that-you need to pay in full. After several calls, AMEX was paid in full and yet, the cancelled my account.
The Plum card was paid on time and often early-and yet AMEX cancelled that card too. I'm fed up with them-horrible customer service and trying to run people into the ground!

Live and Learn-working with recruiters
I have worked with recruiters over the past 20 years. As with any, there are good and bad.
I'm recently frustrated to understand more about their markup for project resources. A company may be paying $125 an hour, paying the person doing the work $25-$40 an hour. And, there's also enough margin to be able to provide a cut to other people in the middle.
It's a bit of a scam for companies and I hoped the access to information on the Internet would eliminate this...and it has to some degree.
Lesson for employers-know who you work with and try to cut out the middle men!

Verizon Palm Pre Plus spell check
I recently upgraded from a Blackberry 9630 to a Palm Pre Plus with Verizon. It took me several searches to find it-but the Pre doesn't have a good spell checker installed, which is unbelievable!
I finally found a great auto correct app that works similar to the Blackberry.
