Happy Birthday America
Good morning and Happy 4th of July!!! It has been a while since posting and I apologize for my tardiness. I seem to be doing well, happy with how I feel, not overtly concerned about any specific incident, but there have been a couple of things that caused me to take pause and while did not result in any terrible consequence they could have. The most glaring is on a recent trip to a ball game I left my ATM card in the kiosk 3 separate times. The way they work is you order, they ring it up on an iPad like device that is on the counter then flip it over for you to add a tip. Meantime you have already inserted your card in separate card reader and add your pin. Then they bring your order, your card is still in the separate reader until they complete the transaction. So at that point I grabbed my order (three separate times) and walked away, leaving my card in the reader. Fortunately for me on two separate occasions the people who performed the transaction found me and returned my card (one actually came to my seat, the other, we were at a table next to the kiosk, and I have no idea how either person did that but am very grateful). I used the same card on those two transactions and after the second time it was returned, I noticed the card I used on the first transaction was not in my wallet, and after a few minuets of tearing my wallet apart I figured I must have left it in the reader like the others. So I hauled ass back to that kiosk and sure enough they had it. But what was interesting is they had in in a pile of about a half dozen others and the dude that gave it back told me it happens all the time. So I felt a little better, but not much. These are the things that I want to keep better track of and I will try to going forward, along with making more frequent inputs. Happy 4th and God Bless America!!!
