Can confirm. Every now and then one my cashiers will call me over and be like “this old woman handed a signed piece of paper instead of money?”

It’s also funny to show them the ol’ shotgun credit card imprinter “you put the card there and the paper here kachunk and in a few weeks wed find out if they actually had the money at all!”

How the hell did that system work for soo long lol

For fifty bucks I’ll tell you exactly how to make money scamming people.

“does that actually work”

“No it never does… But it might work for us”

-Arrested development

It was closed lol rescheduled for the 31st. I think I’m going to go dressed up as a judge.

They have a lovely bike path or you could take the trolley

Precisely. He considered the doctor to be his father. He likely would have called himself Frankenstein as well.

It’s Florida. Titusville.

And the courthouse was closed when I went there today because of the hurricane. Guess they don’t have power yet.

The clerks office is closed too, and the website hasn’t been updated and still says my court date is today.

I even tried calling the non-emergancy police number and they don’t know. They told me to call the clerk on Monday. Which will be fine unless my court date is rescheduled for Monday at 9am when they open.

There’s no way I can deal with the fime immediately. That’s kind of information is exactly what I was asking about…

I live paycheck to paycheck. I don’t get paid again until next week.

They really expect people to pay the unknown fine immediately?

I’m housing insecure. I’ve always worked hard but it’s never been “my place” it’s always a roommate or girlfriend and I move around A LOT. Plus one of the symptoms of my ADHD is “time blindness” it’s hard for me to judge how much time has passed between two events. That’s why I didn’t think about my license might be expired. 1 year, 7 years, 12 years… It all feels the same to me.

That’s something to consider. I just don’t want to seem like I’m being difficult to the judge.
