Danzheimers

We have to use our ID Cards to log in to our computer at work and use many military websites; a card reader scans a computer chip to ensure I am Me, assuming I enter the right password. Dual-level authentication. Maybe certification. I forget the term. Information Assurance at AFIT was so long ago.

Twice last week I was getting dressed for work and realized my ID Card was sitting in my computer. Which wouldn't be a huge deal if I didn't need it to get on base.
I was able to talk to the guards out front and show my work badge and they were good enough to let me in. Probably get that a lot.
So the second time it happened, I decided to leave my car keys by the reader as a gentle reminder.
And it worked! Walked out with my ID Card.

But I forgot my keys.
