[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 709334, member: 18958"] I agree with Jabber, Nomad. If this person is unable to work with both (all) genders, cultures, races, etc., she should not work there. This is not professional. It is rude and you should not have to deal with it, period. To look for an explanation, a rationale, a cause is to find a way to excuse what is inexcusable. That said, I am an identity theft victim. For maybe 4 or 5 years. There is a 7 year flag you can get. You will need a police report. Despite this, it happens recurrently. They sell and resell my data. They have everything on me. They have wiped out a bank account via paypal. I no longer have a paypal account. What they do is they add their own address and apply for new credit. Despite my fraud reports, it keeps happening. I have not so far gotten that credit monitoring service. I am unsure why. I guess I feel that that is another type of abuse. And I resent having to pay for people TO NOT behave criminally towards me. I have gotten to the point where I fear doing any business online. Except how can I not? And now I can't stop it because the cat is out of the bag. (I love cats. Sorry cats.) I have a wonderful bank now. I looked online to find the most solvent banks that are in my area and I found it that way. They all know me by name and they know about some of my life. They are like friends. They are friends. It is a community bank that is only in my area. I feel that they value my business and they care about me. That is what I would strive for. Not this disrespect. She is out of line. Very, very much so, I think. We should never have to ask why we have been abused. Never. But the thing is, like you say, there are several issues rolled up into one. The identity theft is to a large extent out of your control now.( I am going to pay for the credit monitoring service. Reading your post, made me decide.) And I would do the 7 year alert. I did. But it seems like banks so much WANT to extend credit they override what should alert them. I am not sure why. It must be that they see this fraud as a cost of doing business. But they expose us to this calculated risk too. It is wrong. [/QUOTE]
