I called WF and the CSR asked me for my username as part of the authentication process. I was taken aback by this, why in the world would an employee have access to this information?

There's so many other questions they could ask. I ended the call and will just go into the branch to handle the business. I was also not fond of their offer to "save my voice so they can use it to identify me in the future". This millennial is becoming a boomer.

I wonder if I need to get with the times or get a new bank?

I'm closing on my first house in about 45 days, new build. I took a trip about 2 weeks ago, a friend paid big bucks to stay at a hotel that starts with the letter M and as a reward, I brought bed bugs home.

I am currently renting a single family home and I feel so defeated. I have worked so hard to save for the down payment and get out of renting and now there's a possibility that I will carry bed bugs into my new home.

I don't have a lot of bites but the ones I have are driving me insane. I sit at work thinking I have bed bugs crawling all over my skin.

I am conflicted, do I try the DIY methods I read online or hire an exterminator? At first I saw Mark Rober's video and I thought I found my solution, but then I read more about it and found that is not a safe method. Do I contact the landlord? Do I throw away all my belongings? Any guidance is appreciated.

* I know I am very lucky to be able to buy in this economy, this is not lost on me.
