Why YSK: If you are a US Resident, don’t lose your Social Security card more than 10 times, or else you might need to respawn 💀

Excerpt from Wikipedia:

In accordance with §7213 of the 9/11 Commission Implementation Act of 2004 and 20 CFR 422.103, the number of replacement Social Security cards per person is generally limited to three per calendar year and ten in a lifetime.

    Had a young friend lose his SS card and license on a camping trip when the canoe dumped. I was laughing about it with his best friend.

    “How the hell you bring your social security card camping?!”

    “Well, I did too. We’re applying for lots of jobs.”

    And you don’t have that shit memorized?!

    Oh well, lesson learned I guess.

      Do you need to have it to apply for a job? I’ve only ever needed it when actually starting a job but I’m Canadian.
