[quote=Anonymous][quote]Actually, 16:55, you shouldn't be mocking the PP. She's right.

It is completely irresponsible of the OP not to have a backup card or other backup method to cover herself in emergencies.

Yes, it is great that her NF was so nice, trusting, and generous, but OP is the one responsible for her own mess and really should not have needed to have her NF bail her out. Frankly, she should be embarrassed to have had to ask for such a silly favor.

So many perfect people on DCUM!! You've never been in a sticky spot? 
Shit happens. It doesn't make someone a bad or irresponsible person. 
Ever locked your keys in your car? Mistakenly left your credit card at a restaurant?[/quote]

Sure, I've locked my keys in my car before. I called a locksmith and paid him for his work. Sure, I've lost a credit card. But I have a backup, but that backup is not my employer. Any bad planning on my part is not my employer's problem to solve.

This is not a case of "shit happens". This was entirely preventable on OP's part. She should have planned better and made sure she had enough cash for gas if she chose not to have a credit card. It's also mystifying why she didn't just call the 800 number on the back of the debit card and get the bank to release her funds. They can do that kind of thing, especially in an emergency.[/quote]
