Anon needs to pay the rent
(sh.itjust.works)
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
Years ago you needed to send them a check every month. You also mostly got paid with a monthly check.
For some (historic) reason bank transfers are very underutilized in America. I think it gets better though? I don't know am not 'murican.
My guess is that forcing you to withdraw cash or write checks is more profitable for one of the most under-regulated industries in the world in one of the most under-regulated countries in the world 🤷
Just how backwards do you think we are? I haven't written a check for at least ten years. Everything is electronic now.
Very, very backward
The last time I paid for rent via check was... 12 years ago? And that was for a pretty ghetto apartment. Everything before and after was electronic (some used Paypal, some had a website that accepted bank transfers, and accepted Venmo). I write maybe one check/year these days, and usually for a wedding. This year, I'm back to writing multiple, because my kid's pre-school charges extra for Venmo for some reason.
