Worst day ever

Pertinent points:

1. If you accidentally leave your bank card at Kinko's and some loser butthole discovers it, they will completely drain your bank account.
2. Your bank (Wamu) will have absolutely no sympathy and tell you "sorry, Charlie."
3. You will live in the nethermost regions of Manhattan, where the train runs sporadically on the weekends due to construction, and you will spend 3 1/2 hours of your day on various modes of transportation with the crazy homeless guy who kicks garbage cans, smells of urine, and then, OF COURSE, sits next to you on the train.
4. You will take every wrong train possible and end up in Spanish Harlem.
5. You will consider very seriously taking a cab until you realize that your bank account is completely empty thanks to #1 and that the coat check money you earned tonight is your ONLY source of income.

On the upside:
1. Kinko's seemed pretty nice and said they would refund my money.
2. One of the cooks at work sent out an "all raw" dinner for me because he knew I'd had a bad day.
3. I shoot my DVD on Tuesday and Wednesday and meet with some commercial casting directors tomorrow, so that's good.

Sigh.

Sorry sis, that sucks. Maybe you could get a list of the merchants that jerk used your card at and see if they might reimburse you. It's worth a try. Hope it gets better!

No kidding. Talk to your bank manager and raise a fuss. And like Keli said, go to the managers of every single place your card was used and demand to know why they didn't check the ID and signature. My guess is they'll help you you. If nothing else, the politely worded "why you suck" letter to the corporate headquarters of places like these will get results.

And happy thoughts--it's Tuesday! You're making a DVD today!!!
