“We couldn't pause TV and we couldn't just fast forward through the
commercials! Gather around kids, and I shall tell more horror tales of the
past …”
Over a week ago, I had to order some checks from my bank due to a new
recurring expense. My last check I wrote from my checkbook was for some time
in 2015. Then one check from 2014, and one from 2013.
Needless to say, I haven't had a need for a checkbook in years.
So the new checkbook arrived (two of them, actually). I recall in the past,
they would arrive in the mail in a box sized large enough to hold the checks.
But today, they arrived in an unusual format—a flat package about 6½ × 10 × ½
inches (16.5 × 25.5 × 10 mm). Upon opening it, it looked like a book, and
stuck to the inside cover were two checkbooks. I pulled them off, and beneath
one of them was instructions on how to write a check (with a link to an
instructional video [1])!
I suddenly feel old.
