So I got my paycheck at work today. Pretty abysmal, considering I had to miss work a little to go to the dentist. And after paying dentist bills, I have less than $100.
So during my lunch break I go to the nearby Chase bank to deposit it. I walk into the vestibule where the ATMs are. This ATM is squawking at me, so I look over. It says "Do You Need More Time?" so I hit "No." Then a receipt prints and a card pops out! I look around, but no one is there and I don't remember anyone walking out the door as I walked in. I take the card, and look at the receipt. Available balance? $5000 and some change.
Immediately I'm trying to imagine the number of megapixels on the camera I'm about to buy with this card.
I mean Jesus. Reread the part about the dentist.
But lemme tell you something about myself: I'm paranoid, anxious, untrusting, and at my worst I'm somewhat of a conspiracy theorist. So I figure that kind of once-in-a-lifetime offer is some kind of karmic entrapment. I go inside and hand the card to a teller. I mean, I lost a lot of morals in the past 4 years or so, but I don't think I could stoop that low anyway.
