Getting ready for my trip to Long Beach, California next week (business meeting), I was gathering my various documents (itiniary, maps, etc) when I realized I was never sent my final itiniary. So I called my office to find out where it was, only to learn my plane ticket was never ordered. Well, it's a good thing I freakin' called! I can only imagine the blogging I would have to do had I shown up at the airport on Monday WITHOUT the reservations/ticket I thought I had.
It turns out that a couple of weeks ago when I sent in my travel request and received my draft itiniary, a charge number was never generated to purchase the plane tickets. Someone at the office was supposed to take care of that but didn't so my ticket was never authorized or bought. So... instead of getting my ticket for ~$475, I now have the ever popular $1200 variant. I feel so violated. I don't even get a comfy first class seat to sooth my sore rear. You would think I'd get non-coach seating for that price.
I shouldn't ever gripe at my sister again for paying $3000+ per month for her Greenwhich Village (NYC) apartment. At least she gets like 800 square feet for a whole month, compared to my maybe three square feet for three hours.
