Hi guys.
Does anyone know of anyone who is supposed to be receiving one of those incentive checks from the Feds? I'm not talking about the EFT (direct deposits) but the actual hard copy checks? I saw a news article a little over a week ago showing them coming off the presses at Treasury but I haven't seen a sign of a check yet.
I got mine last Thursday Mamie. Be warned, my $600 check was only for $486. Friggin' Bush!
Mamie - I know i saw an article a few weeks ago that had the breakdown of when checks were being sent out and the selection process. Maybe the IRG website would have it?
Shamey - **sniff** I'm all proud and stuff!! My lil Chess convert. Now if I can just get you all the materials you must review.
I love the music anyway.
And I had to stick up for my girl. It's not her fault the sound sucked.
I got mine. Paid some bills!
Well, scary morning! My doc want(s)(ed) me to go to the ER, but since the scary pain went away, I'm avoiding it! I'm such a good patient!
Sorry, Mooney, I had to step out for a minute also. Anyway, my theory: climbing the corporate ladder is like ascending in a balloon. To climb higher, you need to drop weight. So corporate types reach back and pull out heavy brain chunks. They eventually reach the top, but by then they're idiots.
D..n! It's based on the last 2 digits of the SSN. Mine is the LAST to go out - mid July. I can't win.
SHIRA, GET YOUR ASS TO THE ER RIGHT NOW! Just because the scary pain went away doesn't negate getting it checked, especially if your Doctor advises it. You are NOT a good patient. BE ONE!
I got mine right before I got my refund and I got all $600.00. Could it have something to do with me having direct deposit maybe?
yeah, shira, i gotta echo deet's point here. get thee to the er.
Okay. I'm going. But I'm NOT happy about it.
I'm SO getting a lollipop after this is all over.

D2 - great theory - explains all the hot air at that level, too.
If you have direct deposit, you get your money first. Then paper checks are mailed, like Mamie said, in numeric order by last two digits of your SSN. Like Mamie, I will be the last to get mine.
As to the amount....um...how to say this delicately...
If you make over a certain amount (salary) your amount is incrementally reduced. In other words, SOMMS is rich and he's taking us all out to dinner on July 19.
Good girl. And good luck!

yay, dinner with on somms.
i'll put your, uh, lollipop on ice until you're back shira.
Do you really want to do that, Papa. You know what happens to cold lollipops, don't you?
Your tongue gets stuck to them?
hmmmm, yeah, they dribble. on second thought i'll just set it here on a coaster. should make for intersting conversation if any svps stop by.
Oh yeah, they won't see the irony in that either, Papa.

I got my full amount, but Chris doesn't get one at all **evil laugh**. And he paid out on taxes too. **more evil laughs** Well I shouldn't be laughing because that effects money that coulda been used to buy Tink presents but I still like the superior feeling of getting free money and him not.
So then Chris is taking us all out to dinner on July 19th!?!
Chris wasn't invited to dinner on 7/19, but I can always steal his credit card.
I do like the way you think, Tink.
