The IRS Mantra

I will continue to hold. My call is very important to them. If I hang up now, I may increase my wait time. Calls will be answered in the order that they are received. It is the way. Ohmmmmm…

Déjà vu

I get déjà vu often, and sometimes it’s so powerful that I wonder if it’s real. For example, yesterday I got a rebate check from the IRS. I could have sworn I just got a check for the same amount recently.

Thanks Government!

I got a letter from the IRS last month saying that they forgot to send me my rebate check from the 2001 tax cut. I got the check last week. Then I got a duplicate check. Thanks government! Keep ‘em coming!

For those of you who are wondering about my character, yes, I’m going to call the IRS and tell them they sent me a duplicate check. That’s the honest…oops! Brain freeze! I forgot I received the first check, and everything I wrote before this period.
