Michelle Malkin, in a CBS News interview
Romney types, of course, are the ones who sign the front of the paycheck, and the Obama types are the one who have spent their entire lives signing the back of them.
Hey Michelle, I just signed the front of a check.
It's my rent.
Also, I get direct deposit so I don't sign the back.
So there.

Erm...and getting paychecks for the jobs that you keep saying we don't have because we're lazy layabouts is bad how?
It took me a while to realize what Michelle "In Defense of Internment Camps" Malkin was trying to say there, since I have direct deposit as well as electronic payment for my rent.
Also credit + electronic payment. Which I get the feeling the top brackets that'd be for Romney do more often than anything.
Michelle Malkin has proven that you can, in fact, be too much of a snob to function without assistance.
And apparently you can also be too much of a sheltered little high-functioning-basketcase, because I have no idea why people would sign the back of a cheque. All I know is that it somehow results in Krusty the Klown going bankrupt. : (
Who is Michelle Malkin? A hairdo with a mic, I'm guessing?
You're supposed to do so before cashing or depositing it.
How come? Do they already have handwriting-analysis technology built into ATMs? Or envelope-opening-and-content-removing technology, even?
I deposit them in person. My parents have had problems with ATM depositing them, and with my luck I'm not eager to repeat.
I've never ATM-desposited anything.
the fuck is an ATM deposit
ATM's don't deposit
The ATM's for taking cash out, not putting it in, it seems.
^^No, you can. They even give envelopes for this purpose. But it's really annoying to do, so many of them don't have this function anymore.
There's a way to deposit cash through these sucky-tubes, I think.
Maybe over in Bizarroland
^^I've only seen those through bank and pharmacy drive-thrus.
I did ATM deposits when I had my grocery store job because I did night shifts and I slept during bank hours.
Yeah, I mean the ATMs here will take your check and scan the amount on it (usually) correctly. It's just open to a bunch of problems I don't want to have to deal with.
And you're supposed to endorse the check before putting it in anyway.
>2012
>not using direct deposit
I keep thinking this thread is about me at first glance.
^^ Paper trail. When you've had other people lose your shit as often as we have, you want a paper trail.
I guess I'm a bit jaded to that idea after having a credit union lose stuff twice about our car payment, and the IRS audit us once for something they misplaced and we would've been screwed without having said physical documents. Oh, and my first college accidentally deleting my entire transfer.
When possible, I get a physical paper trail. Online records are great when they work (and they are my first resort), but between having awful luck and being a programmer myself, I'm not trusting them any further than I have to.
Any institution will be as incompetent as it needs to be, and then a little bit more.
