why does it have to be so hard
so, we have online payroll. we have online tax forms. we have online signup for direct deposit.
but we can't CHANGE our direct deposit once it's been set up? wtf? the paper forms don't even allow for splitting into more than one account. i've now emailed my HR person AND called payroll for this information, and i have nothing yet. It should be a simple enough answer: can I do this online? can i do it at all? what forms do i need?
instead, nothing. 15000 employees and ONE lady to handle direct deposit questions, when the ENTIRE place is made to have mandatory direct deposit.
insanity i tell you.
well... if it's like everything else, they'll stall past June 1, and my changes wont happen till July.
update: we cant split into more than one account. hooray. at least i know now.
update #2 now i'm told we CAN do this, but i have to call payroll to do it, and talk to the lady i left a message with before talking to my hr person.
this is all too f'ing complicated.

Did I mention I didnt get my hotel room in Athens paid for, because the hotel with the proper rate was BOOKED by the time my travel forms got approved because someone sat on it too long. WTF. So, I'll be driving down at 6:30 am and driving back around 9pm. I might not even get my parking paid for, because the city parking lots/garages dont have attendants, just METERS, and there is no parking pass for the conference for the permit lots.
Update: After calling Parking Services, I managed to get a free day-pass to the campus down there, and they are calling the conference organizers to try and get passes out to attendees. Something the organizers should've thought of to begin with.
