That is funny/not funny.
After a few months, I got a live check and cashed it in order to pay bills.
This was 2002 or so.

Boy did that suck. The worst part was getting called my first day on vacation in the summer of 2006 and told I needed to decide quickly which 25 of the 160 people that reported to me I'd be keeping to close projects down as the remainder were being let go due to "cost cutting" (they were seeking buyers for the bank.)
I left the bank in early 2007 when I just couldn't take it anymore and that was right before the housing crash started.
