So, I went to the IRS after work in my Limp-mode Crown Vic. Got my identity verified and they started processing my refund for $195. Then I went home, got a text from the previous owner of my car who said he’s got the ECM from the donor car. That car is a Seattle PD car whose engine was dropped into mine.
So I went to my bank, withdrew $80, went inside to break one of the twenties, then headed over to the seller to pick up and install the ECM. With that matter done, I decided to treat myself to a nice dinner at Shari’s restaraunt. Eggs benedict with stuffed hash browns and vanilla milkshake.
I get up to go pay my bill...
...and my debit card is gone. I think back to where I last used it, and realize I forgot to retrieve the card from the ATM after withdrawing because I was in such a hurry to go get the ECM for my car. The Manager let the bill go, though I left the last $5 in my wallet with him, and hurried to the bank to hopefully catch an employee at closing time.
Unfortunately, they had long since closed for the night.
Ffffffffffffffffff....
Tomorrow, when I finish my shift at work, I’m going straight to the bank to see if I can retrieve my card. If they don’t have it, I’m having it cancelled and hopefully they can issue me a new card on the spot (update: a spot check of their FAQ says they can do that). Then I’m going to go pay my goddamn bill at Shari’s.
I hate leaving bills unpaid because of a mistake on my part. It infuriates the everloving fuck out of me.

I would just call your bank’s card services number and have them cancel it now, honestly.

I’m deaf, bruh. Can’t really “call”...and the IP Relay service doesn’t jive well with their automated call system. There are no live reps on their 24-hour line.

Oh yeah, that makes things difficult. No fraud reporting options on the website either, I guess?

Doesn’t the machine eat the card if it just sits in the slot for too long?

It should. That’s why I’m going to the bank first after work.

I left messages on the online banking site. That’s as good as it gets for me.
