Better Than Crabs

Damn that new technology is what I say!

Basically I was at the ATM machine last night because I had to deposit some money because my hefty 2nd installment of my insurance payment was coming out. I had to make two separate deposits and figured this was straight forward. WRONG. I entered both amounts on the fancy fancy screen and had my two envelopes ready to go. The chute opens up and in goes envelope one, the chute closes, envelope two is still in my hands. OH OH. A slip prints out saying I deposited the full amount yet half of it is still in my hand. OH OH. So quick thinking came into play, I need to deposit this other envelope but not put in it’s amount because then my account will be super over. I tried to enter a $0 deposit, no go, so I enter a $1 deposit, surely if someone is checking the machine they’ll realize no one deposits $1 into their bank account. At least I hope no one does.

So a night of worrying thinking that the bank might think I tried to rip them off — enter one deposit amount and have the machine accept an envelope at half that amount — all turned out well. I just got off the phone with the bank and the friendly person on the phone laughed at me saying “we’re all entitled to make mistakes”.

So see there you go. I am human afterall, now you can feel better
