here's my phone, take my money, too

The morning after my phone was stolen, I went to the police station to file a report. The policeman took my information, but before the report could be official, I would need to go to the Banco de la Nación and purchase a voucher of sorts. (I guess if you can't punish the thief, might as well fine the victim for being careless.)

I finally found a branch and there were two lines that stretched out the door. I estimated a 2-hour wait to purchase something that I will then need to bring back to the police station in order to claim that I've been robbed, officially. Needless to say, I didn't wait. I decided there was no hurry and could return another day since the police didn't seem to be in a rush to find my phone either.
