So in the up and down, left and right of my last two days of moving stuff, (this past friday and saturday), We got the rest of the things from Amikolle, and our bed. Then we cleaned up the boxes and other shit we had in the apartment, and in that process I lost my ID card from work, a smarttrip card from the Md. Metro with $50 in “fare money” and my 4Gb Cruzer USB Key. The usb key had all my tools for work. It looked like the encryption key in “Iron Man”… well kind of.

So I realize I haven’t seen the thingy with the ID, Smarttrip card and USB Key, so I tell Amikolle, I am going to look for it. I literally turned the house upside down, then I asked her to look for it and she did. No where to be found, my id, my smarttrip card and my usb key are gone, forever. Shit Happens.

So today, I approach the security office, and I explain the dude, “Listen I lost my ID Card, this weekend because I was moving and I must have lost it in the moving in and out…”, so the guy looks at me and tells me, “Well you got to pay for it in admissions… there is a fee for making a new one.”, so I look at the guy and ask him how much it would cost (here I am thinking it will be $5.00, my bank charges $7 for a lost credit/debit card and they’ll make it on the fly.), and the dude tells me, “ummm I think its going to be like $20 bucks”.

(this is where I flip out)

“$20 bucks, are you out of your fucking mind???” (well i didnt say fucking to him, but I included it for the sake of drama). “What does the new ID card has that is made out of freaking platinum or gold?”, or does it have fucking RFID components?

Fucking shit. Not only I loose $50 bucks, my usb key and my work ID and now I got to add fucking $20 for a freaking ID Card.

Fuck!
