Who Knew Complaints Cost Money?
Posted on 07 January 2010
Yesterday we received our “Annual Realty Assessment Notice for 2010” from the City of Edmonton.
At the top of the document I noticed a random line item.
So let me get this straight. If I don’t like my assessment I have to pay you 30 bucks to tell you that I don’t like it and you most likely aren’t going to do anything about it anyway?
The City of Edmonton is, quite simply, brilliant.
They not only reduced the amount of complaints they will receive by 100 fold, but they are going to make money off the really grouchy people that are going to complain come hell or high water.
I MUST implement this in my life.
If you want to complain I am more than happy to listen for five dollars (I figure undercutting the City of Edmonton might bring more business my way), but if you don’t want to pay I am not going to take your complaint.
Perhaps I need t-shirts made up…
Anyone else out there going to implement this million dollar idea?

I’m going to implement a flirt fee, so that every time someone flirts with me, I get paid.
Of course, if you implement it too, I’ll probably be paying out more than I make…
Good one! I could do both and see which one makes me more money. You’re brilliant.
I’d buy a t-shirt
It would say, “Love to Listen…But Pay Up First!”
