Citibank is a fucking joke. On their corporate cards, they have really bad password complexity restrictions, I mean criminally bad, should literally be illegal for a financial institution. Then on top of that shit sandwich, they inhibit paste into the username and password fields, making it hard to use a password manager. So in effect they are pushing people to use guessable passwords. Did I mention they're a goddamned bank? And the cherry on top, it's not letting me in because it claims I have another open session. First of all, why would that matter? Secondly, the fact that they can't tell that I don't in fact have another session open is pretty damn disturbing.

This institution simply doesn't meet the bar–they shouldn't be allowed to operate online as a bank until they improve their security posture. I really wish we'd stuck with Amex.

I have to use Citibank for my Government purchase card and I can't stand their archaic web interface. They need to get with the program.

That's weird. Ours is with JP Morgan Chase. I guess DOD uses a diff bank?

[seawolf]

I think so.  Every card I've ever had from the government is always citi.

Obviously the Friday before is when it should be next year. A step ahead of the crowd

Finding a place fucks me off. Put it off for the last year as current place is decent, if a little small, but not worth the pain/risk/reward.

Last time after a holiday I came back to a disaster, to the point I don't remember that trip at all (not even photos I took until recently). This holiday, I came back and it seemed okay. Last week just really spiralled out of control. In 5 days back at work+last weekend, I've just worked 23 hours overtime. Really need to change jobs. If it all falls apart if I leave for even a week, something is seriously up.

On the upside, if it continues I'll have to go back to Tokyo again to keep my memories alive, again. This better not become a snake eating it's own tail.
