As a dedicated newsletter writer, Axel was determined to rectify a billing mishap with a payment processing company.
Charging $35.00 per year for his valuable content, a customer accidentally submitted a payment of $3,500.00. Despite the customer receiving a prompt refund, Axel faced an unexpected blow. The processing company deducted a fee of $136.80 from his account.
Frustrated, Axel pleaded his case multiple times, proposing a compromise to split the burden. However, each appeal fell on deaf ears. Axel realized even when there is ample room for compromise, the reality of inflexible policies rules at some companies!

Garden Secrets:
Step 1: The most important part to planting fruit trees is selecting the correct placement. Will the area be watered well in the summer months? Will fall rains drown the vegetation and turn it to a marsh? How is the soil? Is it sandy or clay? The clay is hardest to dig, and often not worth the effort. And while sand is easy to dig, it drains water quickly. If you are in luck, you will have a nice dark rich soil that is easy enough to dig through. To test an area take your spade and dig down a couple of feet. If you don't have a suitable spot, you can make your own soil mix to replace what you remove and till the surface area.
