Anybody making deposits this morning?

Our company banks with 4 different financial institutions. Since I always open up the office, I make the rounds first thing in the morning before the boss gets in.

The first business day of the month is always an adventure. People come out of the woodwork to cash their checks. It never fails, out of the 18 people in front of me, 12 of them don't have accounts... they just want their money. They don't want to set up a checking account. Usually, I'll see some of the same ones trying the same thing at other banks once I make my way over there. This isn't their first month getting a check, yet they play dumb every time.

I have come to a few conclusions...

1) The govt. needs to get in the banking business and offer check cards and direct deposit to these leeches. The amount of time they slow up actual working people trying to conduct business is eating into this country's productivity. (It took me an hour to make 3 deposits and make a payment on a business line of credit, on a regular day I can do it in about 20 minutes)

2) It amazes me that someone can be at the door at 8:30 am waiting for the bank to open, but can't show up at a job to earn money the old fashioned way.

3) It's not just blacks. Although they make up about 80%, I see a bunch of able bodied whites who are milking the system as well.

4) I shouldn't complain. Their little $500 a month isn't shite. I could not imagine having to eek my way through life on such little resources. Hell, daycare, groceries, and bills alone would eat up that money in a week if I was depending on it.
