So, I Lost My Check Card...

I lost my check card over the weekend. Actually, I know exactly what happened to it, I left it in an ATM.

I cancelled the card last night and this afternoon I went to the bank to get issued a new card. After waiting a few moments for someone (Apparently, you can't just do this with the tellers) he asked me to take a seat. He said..."So, you lost your check card and need a new one?" I nodded.

He then said: "Okay, Mr. Patterson if I could just see your check card..."

My reply: "I lost it...remember?"

"Well Mr. Patterson, this would go a lot faster if you had it."

Really?

You are so right actually. I wouldn't have had to come to the bank at all, actually. It would have been THAT fast. It is really hard to replace something I haven't lost.

Maybe he was on one of those fancy drugs the kids are using these days. Because when I cleared up that whole "I don't have a check card. I lost it. That is why I'm here" thing and did the paperwork for a new one he asked me... "Is there anything else i can do for you today?" ...I of course said "Nope." However, he just looked at me and said nothing....until I physically got up and walked away.

I wouldn't be surprised if something horribly wrong shows up on my check card. I can't wait.

This blog would really be shorter if you hadn't lost your card.

So short that it would have never existed.
