Banks. Oh, boy.

I've got accounts at two banks right now -- Chevy Chase, where I've been for years, mostly because I'm an ATM-whore and it's true, their ATMs are everywhere -- or at least they were always where I was; I don't find that as true, now that I have different stomping grounds. But that's still where the joint account is, and until the grand whirlwind of post-marital paperwork is resolved, I'm still a customer. Although I HATE them. HATE. The coin counting machine is their only merit. A couple of years ago, I noticed that they were advertising how their checking accounts were free. But mine was not. So, I go in and ask them why not...

( Because few rants are as rant-y as a bank rant )
