I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed that I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card. She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the card was signed.When I asked why, she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature on the credit card with the signature I just signed on the receipt.
So I signed the credit card in front of her. She carefully compared that signature to the one I signed on the receipt. As luck would have it, they matched.

Thank god for that lmao :-)
Have a great day :-)
Ha, ha, what luck!
Whew..I was worried there for a moment...:). Heeere's your sign!
Big hugs from Hawtlanta, honey...
Ha ha ha ha! Wouldn't have surprised me if she said they didn't match!
Oh, thank goodness they matched! hahahaha! I can't compare signatures over the phone. What's up with that?
Happy rainy Tuesday honey. Big hugs xoxo
None of my signatures are alike! I would have flunked! Details---we are bogged down in details.
Been there, done that! Exactly as you described. I need to take a cue from my friend, all of her cards say - SEE ID. So they have to check her ID everytime. She's been victim of identity theft, I can't blame her one bit!
LMAO, Oh that is so funny. Thank COD those signatures matched. Would have been something if they didn't match. Takes all kinds to make this world go around, thank heavens. Take care Sandee
Silly girl ... I'm in "retail" and I check the ID of everyone. Most say thank you.
A lot of stores nowadays really don't have a system in place for checking credit card signatures...since it's all on a machine, and you sign on the machine and the cashier doesn't even see the signature.
Ummmmm. Sure! I've always wanted to sign one of those tickets "Donald Duck" just to see what would happen. But I know it isn't right so I gotta be good.
Imagine that, it actually matched! lol!
Janet :)
I smiled. Of course they both match. Both we signed by you in the clerk's presence.
indeed it is Herculean task. You are lucky!
unreal lol
I purposely don't sign mine or write on there to check my drivers license. Never been asked or checked. Retails are horrible at that.
that was blind luck... :)
You and I are on the same wavelength Sandee...did this cartoon a few years back.

good thing that cashier was taking precautions to prevent credit card fraud :)
giggle, giggle...
snicker, snicker...
yep... here's your sign
Thanks for the giggles! We needed it!
Thanks for your thoughts about our Sadie too. We appreciate you stopping by very much. We miss her very much.
I believe they are supposed to ask for another form of ID. Silly clerk!

That's what they do to me, Sandee. They's rather ignore.
They can also ask for I.D. like a driver's license.
I generally write, "Ask for I.D." on the line instead of my signaure. I do that ever since the time I had my wallet stolen and the credit cards used.
..
hahahaha :) they matched? well, we got to give credit to that clerk..she's doing her job..trying to avoid cc fraud.
Have a great day Sandee!!
If they didn't match, you would have been in big trouble!
Somehow, it makes perfect sense.
I have to keep remembering to sign my name the same way at all times. I have a way of writing my Js in different ways. I am getting used to writing it one way though!:)
nice and funny story, what happened if the signatures did not match?
