Have YOU ever gone to an ATM to withdraw money but forgot to take the cash? This happened to me last week while I was in a rush. I know what you’re probably thinking. Stupid right? Right. So anyway, by the time I remembered and went back to the ATM, it was gone. Of course it was gone. Naturally, I just assumed some lucky bugger must have found it sitting there and was now booking his next trip to Bali on Garuda Airlines with all this extra cash he’d just found.
I was going to put it down as a lesson to learn but then realised that it also wouldn’t hurt to call my bank to make a report. Well, unbeknownst to me I found out through my bank that all ATMs suck the money back in when left untouched for 3 seconds. Who knew? (Go ahead. Count 3 seconds in your head - 1, 2, 3. It’s fast right?) And so because I had made the report which also tallied up with a discrepancy in the machine at the end of the day, my bank has now credited my account with the reported amount. Phew! What a relief!
So remember kids, in future, if you happen to be as stupid as I was last week (or in some cultures, even stupider), remember - money left untouched in ATMs for 3 seconds gets sucked back in! Tell your bank and you WILL get your money back. Guaranteed.
Guess who’s now going to Bali on Garuda Airlines?
Don’t forget to take photos of the fireworks tonight guys using your iPhones. Images of black sky covered in white dots take my breath away.
Filling up my wine glass right to the top or half way and go to the fridge twice? Your call logic.
There are 2 things in life you never want to see. 1) drunk coworkers dancing at the office party 2) someone you love running on a treadmill.
Still can’t decide what I want to write in my mass text to everyone for this Christmas and New Years. I really want this to mean something.
Bridges take a while to build. So by the time you finish building one, you’ll probably also get over whatever it is you couldn’t get over.
We go to work so we can afford to buy houses with nice toilets & buy food that will pass through us. We’re basically just all poop machines.
