Deposit checks at the machine inside the bank vs mobile app now
I used to drive 15 minutes to the bank lobby every payday to feed my check into that machine. Now I just snap a photo on my couch in Austin and it hits my account before the commercial ends. Anyone else feel weird about not seeing that deposit slip printout anymore?

Whoa wait, you used to drive 15 minutes just to deposit a check? That is wild to me. I mean, I get it if you don't have the app or something, but still. Fifteen minutes each way feels like a whole errand. Now I'm over here feeling guilty if I have to wait 10 seconds for the app to load the camera.

Ha, right? It's like we've gotten spoiled to the point where a 10 second load time feels like an eternity. I remember getting halfway there once, realizing I forgot the check, and then just sitting in the car for a solid minute trying to decide if it was worth going back home. Ended up just getting fast food and calling it a productive afternoon instead. Kids these days with their magical phone taps will never know the struggle of showing up to a bank lobby with wrinkled deposit slips and the pen that's chained to the counter.
