Mike's Financial Crisis


Maintaining a long-distance relationship with his Beantown Bimbo has not been easy nor very profitable for poor Mike. His phone bills have been enormous and he has NOTHING to show for it.  Maybe that's one reason he has been in in such a shitty mood.

Mike is currently looking for a job to support his long distance conversational habit.
We agreed (before the move) that we will underwrite his long-distance love affair up to $20.00 per month.  Anything over that would be out of HIS pocket.  

That really hit home when the first $260 bill arrived. Subtracting out things like regular line charges, installation and his $20 credit, he was staring at more than $180!  To see the glazed look in his eyes after reading the bill was priceless!  We later found out that this was a two-way street.  Not only were we seeing enormous phone bills but so was the unsuspecting family back in Massachusetts.
