That's so fucked up. When someone tried to set up phone service with Ameritech using my name and SS some years ago, they called me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Will they notarize your signing my name? That would rock.
Jesse, this is not how you prevent identity theft.
She's giving her identity to Aimée. It's a whole different vibe.

Wow. That's awesome. When someone tried to set up phone service with Pac Bell (which became SBC and is now AT&T) using my name and driver's license but a different SS some years ago, they let her. Then, when she ran up a $950 phone bill and didn't pay for 4 months, they cut off my phone.
I'm still boggled that, of all the creditors I've ever had, the only one that never ever attempted to contact me by phone when weird charges or weird lapses in payment happened was the phone company (repeatedly, not just the identity theft bullshit).
Now I get to hate Sprint, too -- I couldn't even get anyone on the phone.
Fuckweasels.
Still no FedEx. Despite the fact that they called me at 7:15 this morning.

Crap!
Yeah, they said they checked and saw that I already had phone service with Bell South, so they called to find out if it was really me.

When I went to lunch, there was a big FedEx truck parked on the street. The driver was sitting inside, eating his lunch.
If I'da known, I would'a pounded on his door and said, "Dammit, shrift is waiting!"
Cable guy report:
So after waiting a couple of hours, I get a knock on my door. But it's not the cable guy it's the new girl who just moved in upstairs. She can't figure out how to use the laundry. So I go to the laundry room to show her how the machines work. The problem isn't that she's too thick to figure out how to use a washing machine, it's that there's no power in the laundry room, which, not so coincidentally, is where our cable hook ups are! And there's a plug coming from the cable box that's plugged into an outlet.
So I'm pretty sure that's why my cable is on the fritz. I cancelled the service call. But I don't want to go back to work. I don't have to, do I? I'll only get about 1.5 hours of vacation back if I go now. It's okay for me to relax the rest of the afternoon, right?
Curses! Foiled again!
