Went to the bank a few minutes ago. Thinking I was down $452, I made a deposit of $550. I then asked for a printed statement (I don’t do online banking due to complications.

Level 1: Debacle
Went to get my checking account balance yesterday. I was thinking I had somewhere between $50 and -$50, due to the 30-bone overdraw fee. Wrong-uh. The money-machine told me that I was, in fact, $452 in the hole. The old take Cholde for all he’s worth bit. I’ve seen it a million times. So I go into the bank.
