Opened a warranty request for a pair of wireless earbuds that started acting up. Despite having seen reports from other users with the same issue successfully getting replacements I just couldn’t do it. Today I finally did the thing.

      Kind of? If that makes sense. It’s less a feeling of accomplishment and more relief cause it isn’t hanging over my head anymore.

        This is something I’m currently studying for a class so this is really intriguing to me. For what it’s worth, that task is not as easy as it seems and you can tell from others here (myself included as I often get frustrated by things like forgetting to send in a rebate form) that it may be more common for people to NOT accomplish this kind of task.

        I just wanted to tell you that I hope you can feel some of that sense of accomplishment along with the relief. Whether it’s hard or easy is irrelevant…you did it and that’s what matters! Good work!

        I see it like this; Instead of raising our mood from say a base 0, we’re getting to 0 from a negative deficit. A net gain, but not really making you feel better.
