Not thinking about it, I put the cheque in. Good thing I remembered exactly what amount was on the cheque. Next thing, it says it can't recognize the amount. LOL. Anyway, the freaking machine had scanned the cheque and asked if I wanted to see it. Yes, I do, sir/madam, I say to myself. I confirm the amount via the keypad and then it wanted to know if I wanted the scanned image printed onto the receipt.......... damn, I LIKE IT!
It's probably not a new thing, but it was a first for me.
Dude before me was using the machine and he was like inserting 700 bucks in 100 dollar bills all at once. Damn.......... then he proceeds to pay a bill. He was a little confused, but it all went through, I guess. I wouldn't be putting no money into some godless machine, LOL.
Progress is a bitch, but it's all so jalopy.
