I had to go to the bank again this week to turn my $20 bill into 1 $10, 1 $5, and 5 $1's. (Yes, I've owed a lot of people money lately!) So, as a follow-up to Wednesday's controversial post, I skipped the speedier drive-thru lane and opted to walk into the lobby. After waiting in line for ~12 minutes I made it up to the teller. I repeated my actions of last week as I slapped the $20 bill down on her desk and said, "I just need to cash this." These were her exact words, "Oh, I'm so sorry you had to wait so long just for that, how would you like that cashed?"
There you have it... I'm not an idiot after all. Well, not in that way, at least. Notice she even used the word "cashed" in referring to getting change for my $20. The wait was well worth it just for the personal redemption, and the smile on my face told her it was no problem
Of course, the above test procedures could be totally flawed. I herein tried to prove that I was or was not at fault by using confusing language. Perhaps the study should really search more into the teller's ability to understand as teller #1 from last week was a blonde and teller #2 was a brunette. Now, I don't know if both of them were sporting their natural hair color or not so my assumptions could be totally off but... I'm just sayin'!

Oh no.....the older and blonder I get the more my brain cells seem to disappear. I think it is the hair color for sure!
I think your assuptions are flawed. Perhaps you and teller #2 are both crazy? Or perhaps teller #2 has had to deal with a few crazys in the past so knew what you were talking about from past experience. My original comment still stands. And Nick agrees with me(he is not a blonde). :)
