Medium Made Me Laugh Today
Just when I thought I’d had enough, doggone if they didn’t pull me back.
I’ve had a love-dislike relationship with Medium over the couple of years I’ve been involved, and I’ve had many emails from them, but none of them ever made me laugh like the one I received today.
They wrote to tell me I was about to come into some money. From them!
At last!
I thought maybe they felt bad about the paltry sums they’ve paid me over all that time, along with their ruthless shunning as they gave so many others bonus after bonus after bonus — but, no. It was a simple mistake
Apparently, from what I can gather, something went awry in their bookkeeping system and for a day or so they didn’t pay me what I was due. So, being honest folk, they ‘fessed up and added the sum to my, um, balance — which today is at $7.74.
All this time I thought they didn’t care. But look at this. How can you not love them?
I should think of a way to thank them. I don’t want to seem ungrateful, after all. They didn’t have to do this. I have no idea how their payments work, so I never would have known, now would I?
