Recording for Teachers and Credit Card Bills
Left the office early and went to Rachelle's "studio" (actually they're just sharing office space with a sanitary services company) to do some voice work for some teacher seminar tribute at the end of the month. Sort of like automated talk show announcer. All in all it took about 3 hours plus. For all my bravado of being a "professional" voice talent admittedly I have a lot to learn, emoting, for one. "Soft sell" is a lot harder than it looks... uh, sounds. Afterwards I got a talent fee, they fed me lunch and gave me cab fare for the trip home.
Got a copy of the credit card statements regarding my Ebay purchases. So far (save the PayPal registration fee) it all seems okay, except for the transactions that got charged to card with the more expensive exchange rate (Citibank) when I specifically chose to pay with the less expensive one (BPI). Turns out my brother-in-law, who physically had the card (while I just did e-shopping) used it to pay for a recent family dinner. With that expense plus my Ebay purchases the BPI card quickly went over the 20,000 limit. For some reason Billpoint carried over my remaining transactions to the Citibank card. Long story short: I got charged more than I should've. I'd like to contest this matter with Citibank but I'm wondering it it's worth it.
