Just Bitchin’ about: checking out with an ATM card

So, I go to a well-known sporting goods store to get my sons baseball gear, made my way to some other aisles as well:). Hand my stuff to the girl behind the counter… She, spends about 10 minutes trying to find a price for a baseball belt… she could have saved all that time and simply walked over to the display to see the price (but that would have been too easy!!). Then, I swipe my debit card, enter my pin number and I’m done…or, so I thought!

Instead, I’m asked for my ID. AFTER THE PURCHASE IS COMPLETED.. Really? Wow! I feel so secure now that you checked my legitimacy AFTER I’ve already paid and entered my SECRET PIN!!! So, I ask her why, since I already entered my code.. Her response, “how would you feel if someone broke into your car and stole your card?”. I responded, “I’d be okay, especially since my ‘secret’ PIN is NO where scribbled in my car or on my debit card. I guess having it as my license plate number wasn’t a good idea!”. Let’s hope she gets the employee of the month award for her banner security enforcement!! “Quit your bitchin’, that’s why I’m here!”
