This is a true story.

I was trying to deposit my meager checks in an ATM and there was a piece of paper blocking the slot. I happened to have some tweezers and I pulled the paper out, and it was a check from a some kind of real estate transaction. Made out to “CASH”. For $10,000. (That is NOT a typo).

Since I was armed, I could not go into the bank, so I drove over to the line for the drive-up teller.

I waited in line for about ten minutes, and then, suddenly, the person in front of me started BACKING UP. She caught caught up on the curb and was blocking the lane.

There were now people in back of me, so I was a sitting duck as she wiggled the car back and forth. I was starting to have evil thoughts about “no good deed going unpunished” etc.

She finally disengaged her car without hurting mine, and drove off without making any transaction with the teller.

Then I pulled up and gave the check to the teller, explaining how it was stuck in the ATM.

“Oh she said, “the guy is here right now, and so upset. Thanks!”

She took the check, went away, and didn’t come back to the window, nor did the guy seek me out to thank me. I just shrugged my shoulders and left, happy that I had overcome temptation.

God saw it all, and that’s all that matters.

It may have been a “Sucker-Trap” but goodness won! LOL!

You never know when tweezers will come in handy.

Really curious about the car that got stuck and then drove off... what was up with that?
