Don't just stew. Invoice them!

Zoli has a great idea.

"Next time you feel you got robbed of a few valuable hours , just bill it!"

He meant to say that for offending web sites, but I can think of other time wasters:

a) many of these process "owners"

b) long and then unhelpful call center wait times

c) delayed flights

d) delivery and repair services which make you give up half a day waiting for them because their scheduling software sucks

e) clinics and doctors - ever notice how callous they are about your time?

f) cities/counties with construction sites that should be working 3 shifts but would rather you and other drivers just accept the longer drive times

g) construction sites which have night shifts, but only a skeletal crew. They burn your time and more of your tax dollars. Invoice them twice what you do in f)

h) your teenagers :)

As Zoli says: "Chances are, you won’t get paid, but you’ll feel better."

And let's tally up the damage...

Indeed...Ask how much market researchers on the street will pay for the time it takes to answer their questions - hilarious!
