While sitting at a light after leaving work today I saw a guy pull into a bank to use the ATM.

It wasn’t what could be described as a leisurely cash withdrawal though. He came into the parking lot at a quick pace, and barely got the car stopped in front of the building by the time he was stepping out. The man didn’t even close the door of his car, and I imagine he even left it running.

Then he proceeded to walk 20 feet to the ATM on the front of the building. An ATM that is roughly five feet from one of two drive-thru ATMs at the same bank.

So to recap, we have a man in need of quick cash. He decides to use an ATM. He drives quickly from the road into the bank complex. Instead of utilizing one of the drive-thru ATMs–which exist for exactly this scenario–he parks the car and walks to make his withdrawal.

Maybe it’s part of some weight loss plan that includes walking everywhere whenever possible. But I’m guessing that’s not the case.
