Banking By Dummies

What the crap? (Quote from The Crow)

I mean it's friday after work and, like most people, I have a cheque to deposit and I want to get it over with quickly if possible. This generally means I use a bank machine.

I decide that I'll get a head start and go to the bank on my way through Linwood. Yes Linwood. One of the smallest mennonite based towns around. Anyway, I go into the bank, which has only one bank machine, and decide that because there are only 2 people in line I'll jump right in on that shizzle!

I stand in line.

I wait like 10 minutes.

I try to see what the lady at the machine has been doing, the same lady who was there when I arrived (no I haven't moved ahead in line).

That biznitch is printing out her bank book at approx. 5:00PM on a friday and she must not have updated it in a long time. In the time I was waiting she took it out to flip the pages at least 7 times. Do you know how slowly those things print in a machine?

The woman at the head of the line even asked her if she couldn't be doing that after hours. I assume they knew eachother but the point is she could. She just laughed and said, "But then I'll get home and my husband will complain about the book not being printed."

What kind of bastard gets mad when the bank book isn't updated on time? I mean it seems like it's already been about 6 months since she last updated it, so what's a few hours more? Even if he is upset, BOO FRICKETY HOO! Nobody cares. I don't care. She shouldn't either.

That is my rant.

Enjoy.
