So about 3 weeks ago the mailboxes in the apartment complex got broken into and a bunch of mail, I think cheques were stolen. Or something to that extent.
Now, we went and picked up some of our mail a couple of days ago, and we were told by the lady at Customer Service at the Depot that we could call this phone number so we can have our mail redirected to such a post office near our house.
Since having it at this post office would be easier for us to pick up. Since oddly enough getting across Edmonton east to west and back again is surprisingly difficult. Also this depot is only open from 10 until 2 during the week. Now for those that work, presently not me, it is sort of hard to get the time to pick up the mail at such a time.
I have now gone through 5 different numbers until I finally just call the depot and talk to the super and he is presently tracking down our mail and will call me back. I have several items that are in transit and I hope to get them sometime before summer comes.
I also found out that it will take a month or more for the mailroom to be fixed. Tell me, how hard is it to order a one piece metal door with a welded in lock? Or hell, considering what we pay in rent, why can't they install some security cameras or better locks on the main doors? We've lived here less than a year and I do not have enough fingers to count how many times the locks were broken. Typically, I thought, once the lock is busted, shouldn't it be replaced with something better? Or would the cost of new door keys be too much?
This is labelled as a crime free building, well peaches, we've been broken into.

Well the super called me back, and our mail is now re-directed to nearby. Woo. And apparently high security doors, frames and locks are on order and will take a couple of weeks to get here.
My question is, why weren't these installed in the first place? But whatever, atleast I can go up every couple of days to get our mail now.
----------
Now onto to major problem, I need to get my prescriptions refilled soon but I cannot afford this. I also do not want to ask my spouse for the money to get them, but I might have too. You know, if I wanted to stay unemployed 90% of the time I would've just saved the money and stayed in New Brunswick. This is really frustrating, so right now my two options are either ask her or go without them. But we all know that option 2 is not really an option at all. I applied for EI earlier today.... I could've stayed in New Brunswick for that too.
Something has to give soon. I do have a skype interview tomorrow for a 6 month contract via another placement agency for a property manager assistant. Which is awesome, because I have been thinking about going back to that schtick since I did it back east for over 7 years. I know it, I am more than capable and one can make a fair amount of money doing it.
