Default Stop taking my money!!!

On Saturday I bought an 12pack of beer. The card didnt work, so I used my mother's tap thingy she has there. Today, I checked my account and found out that the card had worked, partially, it didnt show so at the shop but it sure fracking took my money!

Last night, I ordered me two pizzas from a online service thingy. They never got the order. Due to some fricking glitch, my money left to where they should but they cant find them anywhere!

Aint technology just awesome?

I can answer this one simply. Dowly, you were drunk when you bought the beer and couldn't figure out how to swipe your card and the store clerk was kind enough to help you out. When you ordered pizza you were drunk again/still and put the wrong name and address in as you thought it would be funny to see if they deliver to "Uncle Joe, The Kremlin."

Call me crazy but I use a telephone to call the pizza place, when the pizza comes I pay cash.

Its a pretty reliable operation

That's what I usually do, but this time had no cash and too big of an hangover to go get any.

You can also give your card # over the phone and sign the slip when the Pizza is delivered, also you can give a tip on that same slip.

Infact drivers perfer the credit card orders over cash since there is no making change (you occasonly get the cheapsake person who wants their $.17 change )

Yes I work in a Pizza shop...
