SHAME on Green Library worker πŸ‘ŽπŸ˜‘ @stanford  for NOT allowing me in with digital ID. FYI digital ID
IS now being used in CA in conjunction w/ DMV (pilot program). This is 2023. there's even self-driving cars on the road in the Bay Area. And yet this Stanford worker won't accept digital id to get into the library for a public event ⁉️ is that even Stanford policy or was this worker going ROGUE⁉️πŸ’₯

Furthermore many other states are allowing digital πŸ†”

"In March 2022, Apple announced AZ as the first state to offer DIGITAL driver's licenses on iPhones thru users' Wallet app. CO, MD, & GA have since joined AZ. Additionally, states like DE, FL, MS, MO, OK, & UT have adopted digital ID systems"


@Stanford FYI:
digital πŸ†” is not a thing of the future, it's HERE & NOW . Of all places, u would expect a cutting- edge institution such as Stanford to be up to par with the NEW NORMAL . OR is Stanford losing it's edge ⁉️

re Cecil H Green Library, Stanford

https://maps.app.goo.gl/EEX8dGqhWj7a3Du99 

I've been to several functions here previously with no problem. However on 10/25/23 I arrived near noon for the "Silicon Valley Talks: Chris Clay, "Unstoppable" presentation in Hohbach Hall. Entering the Green Library I was expecting to go thru the check-in and respectfully told the dude at the entrance my purpose but he insisted I register "using a DL or passport ''.

 I don't normally carry my physical license on me anymore , let alone my passport. But I do have an ONLINE COPY which even police will accept these days. It's on my phone- perfect focus etc. 
Front & back. Passport too.

 But the dude refused to accept it. He insisted I go back to my car and get a physical copy. Since I parked on El Camino to avoid a parking ticket & save a few dollars ( NOT all of us are independently wealthy, & Do have a budget) , this would entail a 20-minute walk to my car & a 20-minute walk back. The presentation is only an hour usually.

 I was quite upset that this fellow was being so stubborn about demanding a physical πŸ†”. I wonder if this is even actual policy or did he just make a knee-Jerk negative response & then double down on it⁉️ I told him this "isn't the Stanford way" and I'm  a big Stanford supporter in terms of attendance.

 I should have asked to speak with a supervisor rather than trying to hope for common sense from this bossy student worker πŸ‘Ž (btw, most student workers I've encountered here are great πŸ‘. This one seemed to have a bias against meπŸ‘Ž).  

If a super sees this, please rectify this so it doesn't happen again. Virtual identification is just as valid as a physical , even preferred in some places these days .

Arrogance at St. Thomas Aquinas Church ,Palo Alto πŸ‘Ž

https://maps.app.goo.gl/Gsh8NqYCDGN3iPTQ9 

It's 10/22/23 & the priest still wears a mask ⁉️ that's too superstitious for me. Then the Asian- American guy comes down in the middle of homily counting HOW MANY BODIES are in the pew, pausing deliberately & arrogantly with his little pencil and paper πŸ“œ. He could easily count every single person just standing from the back. & He looks like a supremacist . 

Now the priest is making a political homily saying a country shouldn't try to have revenge against their enemies . Obvious anti-israel message. Self-defense is NOT revenge.

 Unfortunately the far- lefty or just simply low-information congregation sits there passively as I walk out shaking my head. This church seems to have gone ROGUE- maybe the diocese Bishop needs to step in and take a look. Shake things up a little bit. It's bad. Really bad πŸ‘Ž.

99 Cents Only Stores, Sacramento

https://maps.app.goo.gl/LWsR2XCkSs25wby36 

I think they should change 
their name to
 "nothing is 99 cents " anymore. 

But seriously. I got up to the cashier & the cheese that looked like it was 2.99 turned out to be $5 so I said "please take that off" and then she had to call the manager and she said it would take so long I had to go to a different aisle and start my whole order over. 

So I moved over to another aisle in the cashier there an African American female snapped at me and said
 "anytime you take an order 
off it causes the computer to freeze"
She sounded like she was blaming me as if I should have known that. 

So I said " I was supposed to know that ?" She snapped back "I didn't say that". . I replied " you didn't say that in exact words but you said it in your tone" . Then she accused me of being angry even though I wasn't. I was just going with the flow trying to get in and out.

 I only got angry when she start accusing me of being angry even though I wasn't. she tried to flip it. She was the one being angry.. I was being very compatible and understanding of the situation even though I didn't want to wait in line again.

 I was in a good mood even though this happened and now I end up walking out in a bad mood because she was so angry. πŸ˜‘πŸ‘ŽπŸ½.  

Shame on her πŸ‘ŽπŸ½
