I got these text messages from my dad after my mother confessed he wasn’t actually my biological dad. I’m 31 years old and this is the first I knew of it.

Jun. 20, 2023 "Telus scraps 1.5% credit card surcharge on customer bills": Today I found this article by Pete Evans on CBC. Here's some good news for customers to save money:
Telus has reversed its decision to charge an extra fee to customers who use a credit card to pay their bills.
Last fall, the telecom company announced it would start charging some of those customers a fee of up to 1.5 per cent.
That change came about as a result of a settlement between credit card companies and merchants that would allow merchants to start passing on the cost of fees known as interchange fees directly to customers.
The CRTC rejected that request in December, noting that it was "very concerned about this practice as it goes against affordability and consumer interest," but noted that it didn't have the power to stop the company from implementing the fee in parts of its business that are outside of CRTC regulation.
On Tuesday, Telus confirmed to CBC News that it has scrapped the fee altogether.
"After thoughtful review, we have removed the credit card processing fee on bill payments," the company told CBC News in a statement. "We want our customers to know that we heard their concerns, and we thank them for sharing their feedback."

Take regular breaks: I found this on Facebook: I listen to a 5 minute or 10 minute guided meditation. I take breaks during the day.
