Stolen Honda Civic
UPDATED 9th Jan, 2024: car has been found by a member of the public, parked on suburban street in Royal Heights with minimal(ish) damage (that my insurance will be able to cover). I have updated my original post to remove my personal info now, but I'm keeping the post here in case anyone recognises the person still (Police File number if needed is 240106/1418). Thanks to everyone for your concern and help here on neighbourly, facebook, and on reddit!

Hi all, my car was stolen at 3pm on Saturday 6th of Jan from my house in Glendene. Can you please keep an eye out for it in surrounding suburbs and call the 111 if you see it? Number plate is ######. Photo was taken by neighbour of one of the guys that took my car - do you know him? Thanks all,

What it feels like speaking with a MAGA American:
Me: “Your total is $44.19. Cash or card?”
The customer hands me a credit card but the chip inside it has been hole-punched out.
Me: “Uh, I don’t think this will work.”
Customer: “Why not? It hasn’t expired and I have money in my account.”
Me: “Sir… the chip is gone.”
Customer: “I didn’t want the chip.”
Me: “The card won’t work without it.”
Customer: “It just means I can’t enter my PIN, but you can still swipe it.”
Me: “I don’t think it will work, sir.”
Customer: “Just swipe it.”
I swipe it to prove a point.
Me: “It’s not working, sir.”
Customer: “Then you’re doing it wrong. Swipe it again!”
I do so again with the same result.
Customer: “Maybe you should swipe it so that the magnetic strip isn’t the thing being swiped?”
Me: *Swiping it as suggested.* “Sure, why not? About as much chance of it going through without the magnetic strip as there is without the chip – oh look, it didn’t work.”
Customer: “Your machine must be broken!”
