Does your hydro company have equal billing?

Basically it spreads a total year's hydro payments evenly over 12 months. I had to take that because I kept getting "pink slips" from the power company under my door. (ie threats to shut off the power.) It's a life-saver, particularly in northern climates.

I know that if I took a telemarketing job, I wouldn't be much better off money wise. And telemarketers are seen as the scum of the earth by many people. But it would be the only paying job I could think of, that I could do, short of getting a university education. I wouldn't last that long at it either. The last time I tried it, I had to raise money for the hospital that caused my nerve damage. I quit after one night, and after hearing anti-disability comments made by others.

It's just I want to know that I have some control over how much money comes into this house. Right now, I don't have that control.
