Did you ever wonder........why is there braille on the ATM buttons at a drive up ATM? :hihihi:
Why do light switches have "On" and "Off" on them? If it's ON, you can see that it's on...if it's Off, you can't see to read the dam thing.....

As far as the above ATM routine....I'd say it's almost perfectly accurate, however...it needs to be edited to be 100% correct.
21. Retrieve card.
21a: Drop Card on ground.
21b: Slam car door into ATM 5 times before realizing it will not open far enough to reach down and retrieve card.
21c: Pull forward enough to open door to get out to pick up card.


22. Re-empty hand bag, locate card holder, and place card into the slot provided!
23. Give dirty look and obscene hand gesture to irate male driver waiting behind you.

:ahem:

being the passenger in my wife car is total embaressment ....i feel much worst off than the guy behind us :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy:

I've been there too Joe, but I got out of the car and walked away so I couldn't be seen with her. :Egyptian:
 
#4 is a bit wrong too. It should be place purse in lap, Dig through every compartment for 5 minutes each looking for the card. Rearrange stuff where it should be. Refresh eyeliner. Then dump the purse out. Pick up all the junk that hit the floor. Dig down in the seat for the little stuff that she thinks is there. Check hair in the mirror and count the cars behind. Then drop the phone. Retrieve phone. Now get the card.
