Can't find my wallet
A few days ago my Bus Card disappeared while I was sleeping, 2 days ago $20 disappeared while I was sleeping, now this morning I woke up with no wallet. Searched the ENTIRE house for the last 3 hours and could not find it, I had to leave for work about 2 hours ago but the bus fare was in my wallet along with $22, ATM Card, Birth Certificate, My health care cost containment card, ID, Social Security Card, and my Shopping cards. I was able to borrow the bus fare from my neighbor and I'm showing up for the 2nd shift but I can't find it anywhere! :argh:

3. Anybody have access to the house?
I know someone who lives alone that had a former housemate that came into his home while he was sleeping and would borrow his credit card, use it - then replace it in his wallet. This went on for about a month and the guy had no idea it was happening. The thief eventually purchased a computer and exceeded the credit available on the card.

The guy I know has a written confession from the thief which was provided with his police report. Our local police department has yet to investigate - and this occurred about six months ago. Take advantage of another person and get away with it. Take advantage of a corporate citizen and get the maximum punishment that can be imposed. What would have happened if the thief had been caught embezzling or shoplifting from one of our multi-national corporate citizens? You can bet the cops would have at least read the guy the riot act and tried to scare the bejesus out of him. So it goes in crazy red f*cking JOklahoma.

4. No one that I'm aware of
I'd figure if anyone was coming there is much more expensive items to take. No one, not even my mom knows my ATM Pin plus there isn't enough cash to purchase even a stick of gum so I'm not worried too much about that.

5. This used to happen to me when I would get drunk and pass out
BTW, why did you keep your SS card and birth certificate in your wallet? It is a big hassle to get your SS card back. Ask me how I know.
