Direct deposit is a wonderful thing. Otherwise I would have to walk, or take a bus a whole four blocks from my house! It seems kind of funny now but back when I was making a lot less money having direct deposit saved my a.. butt a few times. Having the money in bank in the morning instead of having to wait for and then cash and deposit a check, blah! Glad you are having fun in Cali!

they don't have drive-thru windows at the banks in CA?! and here i was always thinking of CA as progressive! =) anyway, are you sure the guy was rushing you? because sometimes i move my stuff closer just so the cashier doesn't have to reach for it. it never occurred to me s/he might think i was being impatient...

I always use the ATM, even to deposit money, simply because I can't stomach the idea of waiting in a massive line just to deposit a check. We use the Navy's credit union, and there is only branch, so it gets kind of busy in there. I'm also not depositing a paycheck; we only ever get checks written as gifts, and that's usually $50 or less. You're right -- direct deposit is definitely the way to go!!

I love direct deposit. Without it I am just lost. But there are drive through windows everywhere, even CA, just not on every street corner like they used to be.

Call me old fashioned, but I love going to the bank.

No, no, no Beanie. Out here in California, we don't go LOOKING for the pigs, we HIDE OUT from the pigs..especially when carrying giant flaming marshmellows. Ohhhh...you probably mean a different kind of pigs. Guess I've been working in the prisons too long. haaaaa

I am flabbergasted that there are no drive through bank windows in california...I wonder why? I am not going to be able to make Tombstone as I had thought...financially things are not good here in Paula land...maybe the next one.
