:: Lack of interest in interest ::

Friday, November 28, 2003

Some ATMs do not ask whether the user desires a receipt. At one such machine yesterday afternoon, I removed the dangling slip of paper left over, in a moment of hastiness, flippancy, or cluelessness, from the previous transaction so that I could grab my own. I glanced at it.

INNOVUS INCORPORATED

That's not a typo. Who the hell keeps 110k just lying around in their checking account?

Did it really say "[bastards]" on the slip? That's an unusual thing for an atm to say. maybe, it could say "[sucka-foo!]" or something. I think the bank happens to be the bastards!

Actually, I'm just happy when my bank account says 1k. Do you think his bank gives him interest on that checking account? Maybe he's a big time Colombian drug importer who pays with his debit card. That's what I'd do.

I found the same reciept in a restaurant from Innovus Incorporated with the same information, except it was in another state and had half the amount in the checking account, coincidence?
