Screen trafficking
Jun. 24th, 2006 09:01 pmWe ripped the screen in the back screen door, so I took that panel out and took it down to the Hardware Store of the Undead for repair.
When I went to pick it up, I forgot to take along the little pick-up tag they'd given me.
The old guy who waited on me looked up my name on a clipboard, and found my screen. Then he made me give him my driver's license, and laboriously copied down the twelve-digit driver's license number.
"Do you actually have problems with people taking screens that don't belong to them?" I said.
"We sure do," he said. "That's why we have this policy."
