So I pulled into BOA drive thru to make a deposit. Teller couldn't get my name right so she asked for my id... OK some people can't read my chicken scratch. Then she comes back with she can't get the account number right so she asked for my debit card. (Little History) on 12/20 someone ran a 1K up on my account in Louisiana Walmart (not me) so the card is now canceled, i didn't think of that when I popped it into the carrier and sent it to her. LONG DELAY but that is what the Iphone was invented for...
Then all of a sudden I have a local cop car blocking my exit, then I am ordered out of the car. Kimber is right in view which gets me a Duty weapon salute while I am relieved of it. And handcuffed...
Long Story short: The teller NEVER compared the name on my ID, the check, the account or the debit card. When she swiped the card it came up decline do not honor. So what does she do? She calls 911 to report check fraud, which brought the locals down on top of me.
Which would have been completely resolved if she had looked at the ID, check, debit card or the account both the debit card and account my face shows up.
At 3:30 I have an appointment with the bank Manager who is coming back from Great Wolf Lodge to meet with me. Apparently it's bad when you handcuff a client while he is depositing his work paycheck. Lots of procedures got ignored or overlooked.
SO from there I went down to best buy to return a bag. And as I was on the way back I stopped and grabbed Mc'D's. Just got around the S.Center mall when the red and blues come on. So I pull over. Cop comes up asks if I know what I did. No. He tells me I was on my cell phone. ?I'm clueless cause the phone is in my jacket in the back seat.?
No denying it he saw me with something up to my ear. I got stopped for talking on a... HAMBURGER!!! After alot of back and forth he finally agrees to look in my jacket and I told him to feel free to look around the drivers seat, but that I had a .45 on and what would he like me to do with it?
So he secured it, goes peering around the drivers seat... no phone. Then he retrieves my jacket and finds the phone zipped into the chest pocket right where I had said it was, and well outta my reach. Then he gets all miffed that obviously he's wrong and demands to know where the burger I claimed to be eating was... I ate it. Looking crestfallen I admitted to eating the evidence. By this time I am in hysterics, the cop is between baffled and being mondo pissed. He returns the Kimber to me and gets in his car and leaves without another word.
Probablly not my finest moment, but after the bank thing, all I could do was laugh, I couldn't have cared less if I got a ticket... I would have fought it, since originally I was stopped for cellphone usage, while driving. And it was a hamburger. Would have loved to see the judge's face when I explain I was talking on a hamburger.
Oh somewhere in there there was a batch of questioning about why I was armed... "It's S.Center, I was here a year ago for the shooting in the food court and wasn't there another shooting just the other day? Would you be unarmed?" He had a hard time trying to reply to that coherently. Stupids facts, they just get in the way of a good, "let me tell you something" lecture.
Overall It just wasn't my day.
