Personal Checks? What are they?
Ye dogs, I haven't even seen a checkbook in a decade or more!
Once last year, I had a landscaper that was working the neighborhood do a quick one-shot in my yard, and he couldn't handle credit (or debit) cards, not even PayPal — so I had to log on to my bank's web site and have them send him a paper check!
Not that it matters, after 50+ years of keyboard smashing, I can barely write even a legible, consistent signature. I keep waiting for the elections department to contest the illegible scribble on my mail-in ballot(s)!
(That, after the many hours my dad forced me to spend as a kid sitting at the dining room table tediously slaving over, er … "learning" the
Palmer Method of cursive "penmanship".
Hated it! Lotta good that did. Hah!
And it worked so well for my dad too — he had such an ever-so-perfect, but grossly large fat scrawl that his signature would barely fit on a check! (Quite a trick, with a long surname like "Nash".)
