Seriously, I found out that my bank chain switched their opening hours to being 10a-4p and most branches are closed on the weekends. It's not even 40 hours of opening time for the week!

What the fuck kind of a schedule is this? Granted, I've hardly ever needed to go to a branch in person because the majority of things can be done online or at an atm, but still. Some things you do occasionally need to visit in person for...like getting a cashier's check which I had to do recently.

Thankfully the last time I needed one, I was able to drive far away to a location that was open for a couple of hours on Saturday but Jesus Christ.

Oh, now it's great, there are apps. Before the internet it was misery and before ATMs it was just spiteful. The whole point seemed to be to make sure that you never get to extract cash from your accounts.
