ATM illiterate
ATM's have been our main way of interacting with our banks and our money for quite some time now.
Banks encourage us to use them for as many of our banking needs as possible. Hell these machines can even sell you stamps. It's almost impossible to go through your banking life without using one from time to time. In fact, banks will often charge you $2 if you do some banking with a human that you could have done with an ATM instead.
So why is it that I still have to wait for a fucking eternity behind someone who seems to be ATM illiterate?
What reason can there be to be so fucking slow at the ATM? You don't have that many choices. You can take money out, put money in, transfer money between accounts... what is so fucking confusing?
Perhaps these people are tourists and aren't used to my city's sophisticated style of ATM user interface? Are ATM's in different parts of the country that different from mine? Perhaps tourists from Peoria or Mobile are stumped when they walk up to these complex ATMs?
Hell I've lived on both coasts of this country, and I can assure you, that ATMs are pretty much the same everywhere I've been. Sure the buttons may move around slightly, but it's basically the same choices.
Maybe, just maybe, these people are fucking stupid?!
