  • Locusts, Famine, Disease, War, Famine, Spring Break.

    Though in a Spring Break destination town like mine, many locals might reorder those plagues.

    Yes, once again Spring Break is upon us, and while I thoroughly enjoy the parade of Hot Chicks in Bikinis, I must be getting older, because these nitwits are getting more annoying to me every year. Even the Hot Chicks in Bikinis. The problem with them is that they open their mouths and ruin their Hotness by talking, and saying absolutely nothing intelligent or attractive.

    Although my coworker nailed one to the wall the other night with pure Ownage.

    While sitting at the bar drinking her drink, this particular Spring Break chick was bragging to her friend: "We ran up $200 of liquor last night on my credit card, went straight to the phone in our room and cancelled the card."

    She said all this at a bar, in clear earshot of the bartender, my coworker. To which my coworker said, much to the surprised chick, "You'll be paying cash for everything you get here tonight."

    Unsurprisingly, she and her friend left shortly thereafter.

    Still A Customer."

        What a bitch! Kids learn their scamming skills earlier and earlier, don't they? Or maybe she had a good role-model for it.

          Whatta dumbass. Cancelling the card doesn't mean she won't owe the bill. The card company will see the charge, and then simply bill her. If/when she claims the card was stolen, the bar will have her signature and probably even have her mug on camera. Which means she'll still owe the bill. Yep, not a smart one.

            Wow, what an evil hosebat. She'll still have to pay for it, and, hopefully, karma will slap her even harder.

                I'm curious as to how she will pay her hotel bill...

                My cube use to be next to the fraud department's cubes. I heard some good stories. Shame I can't repeat them. If she claimed the card was stolen, she will be required to file a police report. Both the police and the credit card company will investigate. Charges will be filed.

                Even if she rescinds her statement and agrees to pay the bill, the fraud will be reported to the credit bureaus. Put this one under "How to quickly destroy your credit."

                  Yeah. like the kids that 'borrow' parents' card to shop. Parent says 'I didn't give him permission to use the card, Department Store, so I won't pay. You should not have taken the card and let the sale go through.'
                  Department Store Credit dept. says. 'That is true. We will erase the charge from your bill as long as you agree to assist us in prosecuting your kid for credit card theft.'
                  Parent says 'I'll pay the bill.'

                  I no longer fear HELL.

                    I've run into a couple where the parent responded with the police report number. Kid ended up copping a plea each time

                      Maybe a good idea for a play.

                      A mother is so sick of her teen son stealing the credit card that, though her husband disagrees, she decides to teach her son a lesson by helping the store prosecute him.

                        Yeah, and even better if you base the play on a true story...as Redbeard said, some parents do actually do the right thing and let their kids learn a valuable lesson. When my brother was caught breaking into cars as a teenager and the cops tracked him home, my dad never once said "don't worry son, we'll get you out of this." He had to go through the system, which fortunately for him went rather easy on him...and I think he was equally afraid of jail and what our dad was capable of doing (My dad is really not at all a mean or scary person and never abused us, but he was one of those guys who could just give us "the look" and that was enough...)

                          Oh, the look. My two daughters could tell you about their Dad's looks. I could yell at my youngest and it would do nothing. All he had to do was give them that "look" and she would be reduced to tears. I always thing that it was because they heard me all the time ( stay at home Mom).

                            on one of my other message boards one of the members had to do that when he saw a news report featuring footage of the "unknown robber" and realized... "Um, that's my brother..."

                            Although he loved his brother he also wasn't surprised by the actions and he made the call and his brother ended up going to jail. Not an easy call to make either because he knew it could cause a lot of drama in the family. But he stuck to his decision.

                            the look
                            Mom has it too. seriously it's easier to get yelled at at work than it is to face Mom when I'm in the wrong.

                            You know... I'm betting she was hoping to get nailed to the wall over spring break. Just not like that.

                            or the way the law's going to slam her too when they catch up with her stealing.
