There, where each teller and the manager knows me by my first name and greets me as I come in, I feel appreciated. The fees are minimal and the services are stupendous. Why would I do business with a bank ever again?
Now that BofA has decided to start charging for debit card use, and some of the other big banks are following suit, the people are rising up to complain. I believe they are mistaken. Let the banks overcharge. Leave the banks, in droves. They will learn whose money it is in a hurry. There is NOT ONE SERVICE that they provide that I cannot get elsewhere and be just as happy if not more so. We should not fret, as the banks will blame the gubmint for all their woes, and we will end up paying to save their collective asses once again...
An older, tired-looking dog wandered into my yard; I could tell from his collar and well-fed belly that he had a home and was well taken care of.
He calmly came over to me, I gave him a few pats on his head; he then followed me into my house, slowly walked down the hall, curled up in the corner and fell asleep.
An hour later, he went to the door, and I let him out. The next day he was back, greeted me in my yard, walked inside and resumed his spot in the hall and again slept for about an hour. This continued off and on for several weeks.
Curious I pinned a note to his collar: 'I would like to find out who the owner of this wonderful sweet dog is and ask if you are aware that almost every afternoon your dog comes to my house for a nap.'
The next day he arrived for his nap, with a different note pinned to his collar: 'He lives in a home with 6 children, 2 under the age of 3 - he's trying to catch up on his sleep. Can I come with him tomorrow?
