Ordinary Errand
I stopped by the bank on the way home since I didn’t want to do it before my 7:30 AM meeting. Everyone knows I’m not quite an early bird yet, maybe one day. I wanted to get my banking done and pack my gym bag to get a head start for Thursday since I would likely sleep until the last possible second in the morning.
The ATM machine was inside so I swiped my debit card to unlock the door to let me in the bank. While I’m at the ATM, I hear this commotion at the door and then this guy walks in. I was nervous until I turned around and saw I could take him. He commented that the door was a little finicky.
I finished my transaction, then when I got ready to leave the door wouldn’t open, so I tried pushing and pulling harder then tried the other door and IT WOULDN’T OPEN! It was my turn to cause a commotion and the guy stopped what he was doing to see what was going on. When I turned back to the first door, I saw this GIANT RED button that you’re supposed to push to get out.
Blonde moment:
During all the commotion, i thought omg I don’t want to be locked in the bank until the morning but wait if that happens I’ll be on the news! Ummm no…all that happened is that I managed to get out of the bank, just slightly embarrassed with my inability to open the door for myself.
Has this happened to anyone else? Tell me I’m not alone.
What are your thoughts?
