Apparently, people like me

I mean, who knew?

Our payroll company uses a courier service to deliver our paychecks and there are three or four different people that usually rotate through dropping ours off. One of the ladies always asks about my cats. :D

So, one of the guys comes today and he sees me, smiles, and says, "I saw you yesterday."

Cue the panic.

He then says, "I live in *the same area as me* and I was at the 7-11 at *cross streets by my house*. I thought, 'I know here' but you left before I could say hello." (He's British so he really said hello.)

I have to laugh. While the Vegas Valley isn't as big as say, the Phoenix Metro area, it's still a good sized city. But still, the fact he was going to come say hi and see if he really knew me is cracking me up.

*Makes note to be more stealthy in the future*

Oddly enough, what struck me most about this was that your company pays people by cheque.... I actually didn't think anyone didn't get their pay direct credited these days! In fact cheques are getting phased out by banks here as so few people use them. Does that mean they have to visit a bank to deposit or cash them every week? I don't know when I last visited a bank.

Of course people like you! I know I do! ♥

I think we've had this convo before! The majority of our guys do get paid via direct deposit, but there are a lot who opt for a live check for various reasons. But even for the direct deposits, we get a paper check stub with our pay, deductions, etc. listed on it. Depending on who you bank with, you might have to actually visit the bank to deposit it. However, most bigger US banks have banking apps that allow you to take a picture of your check and deposit it that way. I spent an awful lot of time at mine after Troy passed, but that's a different situation entirely. LOL

Aw, thank you. I have way too many days when I wonder if anyone does. LOL
