Don't you just hate when a six pack logs in under your user name?
Sounds like you handled it fine.
Usually, how we handle it when we make a mistake leaves a bigger impression than if we never made a mistake in the first place.
Not that we should try to make a mistake just to have the chance to fix it.
Think about it. I was at a steakhouse in Las Vegas last year.(Lawry's Prime) Wonderful meal, but when the waiter brought my prime rib he spilled some juice on my pants and jacket. The waiter made a half hearted apology and hurried off. I was upset. Here I am spending an obscene amount of money on a dining experience and they spill rib juice on me. If the story ended there I would never go back to that restaurant and would tell you not to either. Too many good restaurants to go back to one that i had a bad experience at.
However, 5 minutes later the manager came over and very sincerely apologised. He said he would like to buy our table a bottle of wine and then he gave me a card and said "When you get back to your hotel have them dry-clean your cloths and send me the bill. If it leaves a stain, I will buy you a new set of cloths"
For the price of a bottle of wine (I never did bill him for the cleaning)the manager turned a mistake into a positive experience. I have told people about this experience and now I am posting it here. I am sure the bottle of wine paid off.

I can't view that pic on my cell phone. I checked your profile to see if someone with a similisr screen name to me neg repped you. It would appear Brown Suit was the last one to rep you.
I don't neg rep unless you say something that is extremely, extremely negative. And even then, I probably still wouldn't neg rep you.

your right badcall on my part..i seem to be making mistakes more frequently then ever now ..yes it was infact brownsuit ..thanks man ..
Sorry, to tag on to this thread, but I have a different paycheck issue. My pay is placed on a prepaid card by UPS. It's Friday afternoon and I just got off this morning, by the way, I am a part-time package handler. This is my first paycheck. Anyway, there is nothing on the card as of 1:30 CST. I have heard that it's possible that the first paycheck may be mailed, instead of placed on the Aline Card. Does anyone know the answer? I went to the UPS site and I do see the check issued.
