Managing to Annoy Me
My homeowner's association recently switched management companies (an embezzlement scandal will tend to do that). I didn't know about it, which was annoying -- I don't go to the HOA board meetings, but they could have at least told us about it before the first invoice came out.
The new company is a local joint -- Millenium Management. They've already managed to annoy me because:
* The name of the company features a prominent misspelling -- "Millennium" has two N's. (Though, curiously, their URL uses the correct spelling: http://www.millenniummgt.com -- which means they're basically typosquatting themselves.)
* According to their site:
The payment coupon also isn't perforated -- you have to cut it with scissors, knife, or maybe a piece of flint chipped to a cutting edge.
What are we, savages?
I expect that from the Federal government (I had to send them a check, for reasons I will get into some other time), but at least they give you a return envelope (even if the payment coupon didn't really fit right -- the address doesn't show without modification).

"We provide the same management services offered by other HOA management companies. What sets us apart is the manner in which we provide those services."This is actually true -- the fact that they don't give you a payment envelope in the bill certainly sets them apart.
