Payout Haiku

Stripe, I hardly knew thee...

''Paid''? Right...where is it?

Not a dime deposited.

Where is the money?


Note: okay, some of you might be wondering what is on the mind of your favourite Canadian also-ran. I have been volunteering, teaching online, and I finally caved and asked for my earnings from Vocal...and they paid me. But Stripe still says I have to wait. I really hope this is because of the movement from one currency to another, but I won't hold my breath. I also discovered that a student will be on vacation for two weeks, so no extra money will be coming in for August. And three weeks to go before we begin regular college work.

Guess where my head is at?
