How not to notarize a QCD
New experience for me. I had to go to a correctional facility tonight to get dower docs signed. They won't let me see Mr. Upstanding Citizen, but they've got a notary on staff who can handle this. I tell the officer I'd like to talk to her first so I can show her how to handle the docs. She refuses to come out (I guess she thinks she knows what she's doing) so I have to splain everything to him and hope docs don't get botched to high Heaven. They do. I have to send them back and show him what needs to be corrected. He comes back again and says he's not going back again so if it's wrong it's wrong (according to the plaque on the wall, he's 2005 officer of the year, and I can see why!). Okay sir, you're the one with the gun. Now, I won't even bother with how she messed up the rest of the docs, but the QCD was mind-boggling. First time it came back she did nothing but have him sign it. Everything else blank. And even the signature was wrong. I give it back to officer of the year with more instructions (I could tell by the glazed look in his eyes that I was wasting my breath). Twenty minutes later, I get the QCD back again and take a look. Mr. Borrower is supposed to sign with an AKA. It's printed right underneath the line and it's part of the instructions I passed along. He doesn't. Where the notary is supposed to sign, she puts her stamp. Where she is supposed to print the borrower's name, sworn before me..., she signs. She then takes her seal (not required) and puts it smack dab over her signature and other printing. So basically, she got nothing right. Not one freaking thing. And this door knob has been a notary for at least four years because her stamp is about to expire. Please, please, please don't renew it, honey. Trained monkeys could do better.

So much for institutionalized notaries
I see it all the time with City and County docs...the notary who works for the "institution". Now, not to dismiss the QCD you have for the offender, Al, but I see these docs for downright upstanding citizens...these institutional notaries. Docs that grant affordable housing. Docs that are a Request for Notice...for the very trust deed the City is offering. It's pretty shameful, those CA notaries that work for the State/County.
Well, at least I'm ashamed FOR them.
Methinks the notary could use some institution themselves. The "Notary Institution".
Now, if there is such a place, somebody PLEASE tell me now. I have lots of inmates.
