Went to the bank yesterday to deposit some cash so I could pay for my new hardware for my computer.
I was going to pay by wire transfer and had to deposit some cash because I didn't have enough on my account, no problemo as I had most of it in paper but then I was only €2 away from having the total €54 on my account which I had to transfer.
Well also not a problem I said to myself, I went to the woman behind the desk and asked her how I could deposit the €8 I had as change; she just told me "that won't work, you need 10 then I could trade it with paper money".
I then asked her "half a year ago you accepted my change and deposited it directly; why not now?".
That was a year ago, we don't accept it now.
To make matters worse she was quite the irritating kind of person, I stood by her desk for 2 minutes while she was laughing her ass off with someone on the phone over nonsense.
I stayed calm and nice as I usually am, but man I wanted to yell at her.
Because I didn't want to have a conversation with this irritating person I just walked away and went to the take-out restaurant down the street and asked if they could change 5 euro's for paper money, they did and I went back to the bank and did the transfer.
Seriously, if there's one thing I hate then it's people like that. I've met tons of people like them and I keep meeting them.
But leaving that aside, the fact that the bank doesn't accept my change anymore like half a year ago makes me furious inside.
Yet the fact that the woman behind the desk said I was wrong that it wasn't 6 months but instead a year makes me even more furious.
I mean I don't have a good memory but I do note stuff like that, I always remember the time that I talked with someone; maybe not what I said or what the person's name was but I always remember what the main topic was.
Gee that felt good, thank god from TAB having a Rant section. Blowing off some steam helps quite a lot.
