Why does @Fidelity not provide rates of return for 2025 for investments? Nowhere to be found on my Fidelity Portfolio page. The “View your Performance “ doesn’t give this simple, basic number.
I contacted @Fidelity - after 25 minutes, they said didn’t know. WTH???

@Lenovo you bastards. You force a software update on me…. And then nothing works on the laptop. Can’t log in, no longer recognizes my face or password. And I need access to everything on the computer.

@MBonvoyAssist I’m not going to waste my time. Go to the website and try to book 4 days and see what happens.

[Bernie Good @CBGood23]

Tried to book a room with @Marriott The most frustrating experience. The website doesn’t allow to book more than a one-night stay- entered 4 days, keeps reverting to 1. Call the number for reservations- they insist on sending you to the horrible website.

@AmericanAir @AmericanAir - even though I paid for first class seats for original flight, and even though first class seats available for rebooked flight, AA Customer service in Phil unable to give us our first class seats. Assigned to economy.

[Bernie Good @CBGood23]

@AmericanAir cancels my 4 pm flight- rebooks for 9 pm. Board plane then sit for an hour- for them to stock food and water? Then sit on Tarmac, then the @AmericanAir pilots “timeout” and flight cancelled until tomorrow. Extremely poor communication the entire time. Horrible.

[Bernie Good @CBGood23]

@AmericanAir @AmericanAir Flight AA347 (Phil) cancelled- then flight AA 2317 cancelled. No meds- no place to sleep. Terrible communication by gate agents and AA.

You’ve heard of a dumpster fire? This was a real dumpster fire off Parkway East in Pittsburgh today. Trash truck caught fire- dumped it all on the road to save the truck.

The picture, and reality. Thanks ⁦@ChickfilA⁩

@RepDeluzio No, @RepDeluzio , your office is non-responsive to help seniors. I have left emails, called the office, filed requests on website. Crickets. If you don’t want to help your constituents, please stop indicating that your office is there to help.

@PghSportsNow @mvukovcan @MichalowskiCBB @NateBreisinger @PittGuru @JediMaster868 @Alliance_412 @OklndOriginals Why does Coach C favor GDG over JDG? Recently JDG seems to be able to shoot much better. But he stagnates on bench while GDG struggles.

@GhostofWhip I have been to many college basketball games in the past 40 years (including last night’s game). I never saw 2 airballs on foul shots. Until last night.

[Bernie Good @CBGood23]

In 40+ years of watching a lot of #CollegeBasketball , I have never seen someone completely miss the basket on 2 consecutive foul shots. Until tonight. West Virginia player pulled it off. Go #pitt!!

@PabloVidalRibas I try to review 2 papers for every paper that I submit. This year I’ve reviewed > 20 manuscripts.

[Bernie Good @CBGood23]

@sbbaicker There is no way new doc is reading 300+ pages of medical records. Send problem list, recent labs and discharge summaries, and recent outpatient visits.
