What dirty little secrets does your company or line of work have that the public could benefit from knowing?

here's mines...I worked for a big credit card company whose name i won't mention, but they were always asking about what was in somebody's wallet...Anyway, when you call and tell them about other card companies offering you better deals, they almost always can adjust whatever it is you are looking for. For example, if you call and say that Chase or Amex offered you a 7.9%, and your current apr with our mystery card company is a 9.9%, they may offer you a 6.9 to pacify you. We had a point system, and even if i could offer you a 2.9% in that situation, my bonus and paycheck depended on how many points i saved by NOT giving you as low an APR as i actually could (granted your credit was good, no late payments, etc.) Also, if you make ONE payment by ONE DAY LATE, they can automatically update that apr to 27.9 with no warning...shifty business people!!

anybody else??

I signed through POA while she was sick in europe, but I regret not doing a lot of my own research. The house could have been priced 150,000 higher than it was. The price we got is ridiculous and I started to get a bad feeling when the offers came in very quickly, but the agents were very rude everytime I suggested we could get more. This was my first time working with an agent and I feel I was taken advantage of in order for them to make a quick sale.

Several years ago, I was given a substantial amount of stock by the company I work for. The company is in the process of being bought out by a group of investors, and I was given the option of either selling my shares now, or keeping them. I'm afraid that if I sell them, and the company continues to do well, I will lose out in the long run. But I also feel that if I don't sell, I may be "blacklisted" by these new investors.
My boss didn't tell me outright (because he is not allowed to, by law), but he "suggested" that it would "probably" be in my best interest to sell. What should I do?

I guess it is everyones' right to rate! (Thank Goodness)
Regarding taxes, it is imperative that people get good advice. I am a member of NATP, and in good standing with the IRS and have been doing taxes for over 20 years.
It is alarming that there is soooo much bad tax advice out there and people putting down good tax advice.????

I ordered an item for $11.99 over the internet then sent them the check. Then I had to send them and additional $8.99 for shipping costs and they told me they had to have my UPS address so they could ship the item to me. I gave them the right address and they said the item was returned to them because I gave them the wrong address but I didn't, so now they want me to give them another $8.99 for reshipping costs. So, should I pay another 8.99 or request my $11.99 back? The place I ordered from is GSS Store/ Star Safety Trading.
