My day today - Drop DD21 off at school because DS needs their car to go take his driving test finally. Pick DS up, go to DMV and they tell me I need Birth Certificate and SS card. We were just there last week (Don't ask why we were there last week and this week, lol) and I brought all of that stuff and no one looked at it so I didn't think I needed it. I am like are you sure you need that, we were just here last week and no one looked at it. Yep, you need it every time. Are you absolutely positive, goes to ask someone else, yep, you need to come back with those papers. Drive all the way home, get papers, come all the way back and check in again and this person does NOT ask to see Birth cert and SS card. I am like here, don't you need to see these? Nope, we don't need those since he has is permit with him.
(Imagine that is not a computer but maybe a person.
) OMG, I was not a happy camper, but tried not to go DMV crazy on them. The second guy was very nice and apologetic that the other people sent me home. So wait forever, DS takes his driving test and passes. Meanwhile I get a text from strange number. This is DD, I can't find my phone can you locate it with Find my Friends. The phone shows last place she was but wouldn't update to say now. Everyone else on my list was current, hers said it was the location an hour ago. I try calling her phone, I try texting her phone. Location stayed the same for about 30 minutes, but never updated to current status. And then it went to location unavailable. She was really hoping she left in her adviser's office, but I think I would still be able to "see" it if it was there. It seems weird that it is ringing, not going straight to voicemail, but location is not working. She tried Find my Iphone and for some reason, that is only showing her macbook and not her phone. She is sure that was set up before, but she did have to get a new Sim card after Africa and she says she has not used the find my iphone since then, so not sure if that somehow messed it up. But this relates to the DMV because her DL is in the phone pocket! Along with her CIP. She did put a hold on the CC. As I was checking out with DS I asked about getting a replacement for DD's license if it is truly lost. I see all these signs for Don't stand in line, renew online. Can she just get a replacement online? Nope, the guy that sent me home says looks like I will be seeing you again tomorrow. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Go pick up DD (how did people find each other before phones?) and decide that she should retrace her steps and take my phone. While she has my phone, something that says Apple Computer calls my phone. She said it was a foreign sounding person and they say something about fraud activity on my account. She hangs up thinking it is a scam number, which I would too, but seems weird that they call as we are looking for her phone. She retraced her steps - no phone, went to lost and found - no phone. There are 2 main campuses and usually she is on one or the other, of course today she was on both. Calls other lost and found - no phone. Calls campus police - no phone, they connect her with city police - no phone. Stop at ATT store, they are confused about why we can't see on Find friends or Find my Iphone and the phone still rings. They advise waiting to report it lost until she double checks adviser's office that was closed when she went back. Go home and look at the Apple number that called me. It looks legit. I think maybe our phones are linked somehow and they called me about her phone. Which doesn't seem right, but super weird about the timing if not. So I go to Apple support on my computer and you put in your phone number and they say they will call you right back. Less than a minute later, the same number that called earlier calls back. But this lady swears that apple would never just call someone like that without us requesting the call first. SOOOO weird! Anyway, she tried to help us with the find my Iphone thing too. But she could not figure out why we couldn't see anything either. So the longest story ever is we have no idea where phone is. It is a 4 year old 6S, I can't imagine if someone stole it they would get anything for it. DD is super sad to lose it because it is Rose Gold and they don't make them anymore. I will be super sad if I have to go back to the dang dmv with her! And also super sad to pay for a new phone.
I
To make is somewhat CC related, I think I will hit a good size chunk of my MSR when I call to add DS to insurance. And I had my phone bill set to CIC for the last year, but switched it to CIP to be paid auto paid tomorrow! I don't think I would have tried to get the insurance to pay anyway, but also super weird timing.
