Greedy, Greedy, Greedy!

So the tax season is finally upon us and so many of us are thinking money, money, money, right? Oh goodness, how annoying is that. I was just in the tax office getting my taxes done during the week and I cannot imagine all of the other tax offices, as busy as that one was. As I sat in my seat, I saw so many people get flustered because they had to wait a few minutes, their return was not exactly what was expected, or simply they were just greedy. I must say, I don't understand how some people would make it on this earth if they did not have the money they were getting the months of February, March, and April.

                What annoys me the most is I’m sure people call day after day to see if their money is at the office. After the receptionist tells them repeatedly that they will be sure to call them as soon as the check arrives, they proceed to call day after day. Why are people so greedy? I do understand that a lot of people and families are in hard economic times, but ask yourself, if we didn’t do taxes and the government just took your money because they wanted to, than where would you be? If you were doing fine without the tax money or “barely making it,” than why is it such a big deal that you need it right now? You were still paying the bills on time and having dinner on the table, but yet you so desperately need that money. On the other hand, I am sure there are plenty of people who beg for this money because they do need this to keep their power on or pay a house payment. I could understand the constant calling then, but still, people just can’t make your money appear right when you want it and there is nothing you can do to get it any faster. So quit bugging people. Also, I have seen many people go into tax offices and not like what they were getting. Some would walk out because their nine thousand dollar return went down to seven thousand. Are you kidding me? I would die, as I am sure many people would, for a seven thousand dollar return and people just walk away from it. Goodness, what is the country coming to? I cannot wait for these months to fly by.
