90 minutes on the phone to fix a $6 miscalculation on my unemployment filing
i used the wrong hourly rate when i filed my most recent claim and the difference was a piddly six bucks and, after spending 30 minutes on hold, i've been on the phone with the rep for an hour now trying to get it sorted out

i don't know which is more appropriate x( or :eyes:

and, no, this is not personally directed at the rep, but rather the system as a whole

1. Was it in your favor or theirs?
$4/hr for your time ain't hardly worth it.
