:laugh: reminds me of the part from the big lebowski where at the start, he's seen writing a $0.65 check for some milk while the lady at the register gives him such a face of WTF. ahh.

The main problem is the freaking check writers wait until the last minute, ask 10 times 'how much' when the fucking numbers are lit up in 2" high characters in front of them on a huge LCD, and need to be told 5 times what store they are in.

I swipe my card as soon as I get to the machine...as soon as the cashier is done I can accept and be on my way.

perfect example of how someone can be anything they want to be online.

Got to love the consistancy though.
