         WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS!

    My wife sent me to the bank Friday

afternoon. We needed a couple actual

dollars for our pockets and she tells me

we keep what we have there.

     She gave me a withdrawal slip. It's

a piece of paper on which you list your

account number as well as the amount of

your money you'd like to take out. You

give it to the clerk who then,as I remembered
it, gave you your money.

       Since it was our last withdrawal slip

my wife asked me to get a couple of those

too. But the clerk said I couldn't have any!
You'd think I had asked her for extra money!
Or gold!

        According to the bank's new policy, as

she explained it, you're to get and fill out

your withdrawal slip right in front of them

so they know the request is from you.

         Since my wife had filled out the only

slip we had, and signed it, the bank wouldn't

accept it! The clerk handed me one new, blank

slip, and asked that I fill it out.

         Fortunately I hadn't yet torn up the one

my wife made out because I had no idea of

what our account number was. I just copied

the numbers from my wife's paperwork,

signed it and, finally, got my money. In retrospect
I probably should have kept the pen!

          I suppose if I had to go ot to the car

to get those numbers they wouldn't have

accepted the slip since I didn't fill it out

right in front of them.

           Of course it's a lot easier if you're

putting your money in! Wonder why that is?

            Hope the bank increases our interest

rate with all the money it's saving of withdrawal

paper....and that all your NEWS is good.
