Credit Card Utopia

This whole not signing for charges beneath a certain amount thing is amazing.  It’s so freeing to forego reeling in the depressingly chained pen only to realize its low on ink and heavy on chew marks.  Now we just need to get everyone on the same page because it’s a crap shoot at each place you go.  At one place, I can buy a case of beer sans Hancock and at another, I’m still required to sign for a pack of gum.  What do they do with those signatures anyway?  I can’t imagine they’re actually kept somewhere for credit card disputes.  And you can forget to sign your tab at a restaurant or bar and the charges still go through so WTF?  Let’s all just admit that signing is futile and take one small step towards utopia.
