i withdrew money from this branch... put it in an envelope right at the counter... walked to the car... drove to this bank... parked right in front... entered... went to the kiosk to make an online appointment (uhm, that's how i 'legitimately' jump the queue... :"} )... sat down... called as the third customer... handed the envelope to the teller...
teller puts bills in the money counter... whoa! it was short by a thousand!
me: 'that's only N?! it's supposed to be N+1...'
teller retries the money counter... this time it registered N+1...
me: 'whew! i thought there was a missing thousand...'
teller: 'you did turn red, ma'am...'
me: 'that came straight from the bank... i didn't do anything...'
teller: 'you didn't count, ma'am?'
me: 'no... they had that (money counter) as well so i didn't anymore...'
lesson learned:
machines are not infallible... do count your money before leaving the counter...
