FREE CASH HERE!

or; yes, come, rape the bank out of all the cashy monies there is . . .

Today, at the bank, people have been constantly withdrawing money. It's tax returns; people get these deposits or checks for two, maybe three thousand dollars and bring 'em on in, cash them up.

We started the day with over 50,000 dollars in hundred dollar bills in the vault.

We have 2000 left in the whole bank. We've moved forty-eight thousand dollars just in hundreds today.

[rant]

WHAT THE HELL DO YOU NEED THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS IN CASH FOR, YOU IDIOTS?!? WHAT GOOD DOES IT DO FOR YOU TO REMOVE IT ALL FROM YOUR ACCOUNT AND PUT IT IN YOUR POCKETS! USE YOUR FRAKKING DEBIT CARDS, YOU ASSHOLES!

What's that excuse? You're afraid of fraud? THAT'S WHAT THE MOTHER F#$#%ING FDIC IS FOR! LEAVE IT IN YOUR BANK ACCOUNT!

If you get mugged on the way home and lose your credit or debit card, you will eventually get all that money back. Cash? YOU'RE SCREWED.

AND I'LL LAUGH BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T USE A DEBIT CARD.

[/rant]

So here I am, an hour left at work, and I have no money. Someone comes in with a big check they want cashed? Wants to make a big withdrawal? I'm just screwed. Might as well strap me up on the counter and start beating me.

'Cuz I'm broke. The bank isn't supposed to be broke.






Stop asking for money, douchebags.

I don't hate my customers; none of them see this side of me; I sincerely hope none of them get mugged and lose all their money; I am just pissed.

wished I could add to your angst. Sigh...


It's okay. It's calmed down considerably, and Regina Spektor is calming me down nicely.

Never heard of her, but a Google search and seeing her pic shows me I've probably been missing something!

She's great, especially her old stuff . . . her new album is pretty "radio-friendly", but her first album, 11:11, is abso-freaking-lutely BRILLIANT.

We're down to one thousand. Ten hundred dollar bills in the whole bank.

My debit card was being an ass today...either that or the bookstore computers. I actually had to write a check...bleh. I was buying a new laptop...which I'm on right now...mmm, and it's warm. Also snagged a pretty mouse, sexy speakers, and a nice scanner/printer/possible cyborg.

I'm one of those cash people. I prefer to use cash over plastic and don't even have a bank account to deposit money in. It's easy to manage a budget that way - when the wallet is empty ya quite spending money.

I think I don't get mugged because I look more like a mugger than a muggee.

I am the opposite of Mason.  I dont like cash.  I put everything on the card and then just pay it off at the end of the month.  I let the CC company do my accounting for me, and with no fees, it is cheap!

I use my debit card like a mofo. And I ALWAYS pay with cash at the liquor store!

GASP!!!  People coming to a bank to . . . GET MONEY????????

Holy hell!  The nerve of some people.  I simply cannot believe it.  Astonishing.  That people think they can come to a bank and get money is just mind-boggling.

I am the anti-cash. The original, unadulterated anti-cash. I hate having the stuff with me; I'd much, much rather have a couple cards in the wallet.

You have to have at least four - the debit card, the classic credit card, the rewards credit card, the international (no charge for currency changes) card. That's-a the best system.

But, forty thousand in hundreds in one day? What legal reason would you have to carry four thousand dollars in hundreds in your wallet?

WHY, OH WHY?!?!?

the rewards credit card,

Seems they all are offering rewards now.  My discover of course pays cash, but my Visa gives me gift certificates to Amazon.com!  I can really use them for Christmas!

The only person I know for sure is actually doing it for an illegal reason. He owns a construction company, and pays all of his illegal immigrant workers in cash.

SC -

Can't agree with you here. When the stupid newspaper finally gets around to giving me my 1099 (which will probably be AFTER my car breaks down, thank you very much!) we're putting a downpayment on a minivan and getting a brand new washer. Both of those purchases, if made with the debit card, are likely to "red flag" my account...it's far less hassle to make the vehicle downpayment and the washer with cash (we're NOT getting a cheapo washer). I realize it's inconvenient for you, but deal with it, bub! (Sorry, I can be snippy, too...remember, I too, deal with jerks...jerks who call when Chicago runs for their first touchdown, or when Manning...oh, wait, never mind...it isn't about me....LOL!)

But seriously, I get most of my tax check in cash for two reasons: 1. I have several big ticket items to purchase with the return each year; and 2. Because it's nice to actually HOLD that much cash, even if it IS just for a few hours!

I really wouldn't mind if a few people were doing it . . . but it's when the WHOLE WORLD is doing it at the same time.

But I'm a banker. I'm supposed to have loyalty to the system. when I have to make a large purchase, i just call the bankcard department and tell them I'm doing it so that they don't flag me.

Again, that's my job. I work at the bank. I have to love the products. It's in the job description.

Not necessarily, SC. I work in tech, and I hate Macs, Sony Vaio and any Windows product from the last millenium!

It might not be in yours, but I betcha "El Presidente" would whoop me if I was telling people that I hate banks and their products . . .

He'd give me a wedgie. I'm sure of it.

And I'd deserve it.

You FEAR the wedgie?

Embrace the wedgie, SC, embrace it. It is the birthright of a true geek.

I got to be honest and say I like it both ways (make of that what you will   ) I like cash, the way it feels and smells but I do appreciate a debit card and the ease with which I can purchase items virtually anywhere. But cash does speak louder and, in the right quantities, draws lots of pretty girls.
