Today, I had a really bad day at work and the only thing that was getting me through the day was the idea of taking a nice, hot, relaxing bath. When I got to my front door there was a shut off notice from the gas company. I won't be taking any hot baths until I come up with the $500 bill. FML

The gas bill includes another security deposit of 150$ and a turn on fee of 50$. So, it was 300$ that I was past due on and I was doing the budget plan which was about 150$ a month. Only 2 months behind. As for the roommate, it's not her fault she lost her job due to down sizing and she is has been getting money from her parents... we've just used it for food. It's not a matter of whether or not I "deserve" to have my gas shut off. I do. I didn't pay the bill. I agree with that. The FML part of it is that my day was crap and then it got even crappier. Stop preaching and just read the stupid FML so you can say "Hey, at least I'm not that poor bastard." Get over yourselves.

everyone who hit YDI is probably a student and has never tried living alone during a RECESSION. come on people - this is real life, if you haven't heard of the exponential growth of normal people not being able to make ends meet - you'll find out soon enough.

Try paying your bills next time. And if they're too expensive, get rid of your internet/cable/cellphone bill or find some way to cut down on your gas bill. In Minnesota in the middle of January my gas bill never gets above $200. So you're either lying like most of the people on this site or you're doing something wrong.

Wow, well... I read all the comments and first off, I'd just like to say a lot of the people here need to stop preaching here and get a brain, life is HARD sometimes and it's not fair to be so hard on people a lot of times. I hope things start looking up for you.

Don't sweat the pricks, director416. Most of them will be shivering on the breadlines within the next five to ten years, bemoaning the naked reality that everything they cribbed from their parents' long-expired boomer ethic is hopelessly, tauntingly irrelevant. I'm sorry your day sucked so hard. Here's to better ones ahead.

Sorry but YDI for being a deadbeat. Hope you get your shit straightened out.

$500 gas bill? For one month? My uncle got a $1100 and rose hell. Turned out they had mixed his bill up with some huge resteraunt. Are you running a meth lab by chance?
