This guy comes up and wants to cash a check. Where I work there is a big long process and you do give out quite a lot of information that seems more than anybody needs but I just follow the rules, I am a sheep and I'm sure there are reasons behind it.
Anyway, I told him straight up what I was going to do--I always tell them exactly what is needed just in case they decide to say no. Most importantly I always say that we do require their social security numbers, after all they are filling out a credit application.
Anyway, he wasn't as "sucky" as he was weird and I had a slip of the tongue with him.
SG: Strange guy
I tell him all about what we need for him to cash it. He said okay this is his LAST check and (important later) it had his woman's name on it BUT she didn't have a players card which is essential for the process.
I'm scanning in his ID on our mini scanner---note this only goes into our computers not the whole world or the FBI. Next, I ask him for his finger print on the check---seems normal enough right?
SG: You want my fingerprint!?
ME: Yes... Anywhere on the front is fine.
SG: I will NOT let you give my fingerprint out all over the world! What happens if I refuse?
Me: Then I can't pay you.
SG: I am refusing. This is crazy.
Me: Seriously?
(I actually said this--- I was so shocked)
SG: I am leaving!
And he grabs his ID and check and stomps away. Regardless that he gave me his social, address, phone number and anything else you can think of so easily but he FREAKED about his finger print.
I don't understand why. It wasn't going anywhere.... Just to the bank to be deposited. And yes I was going to scan it into the computer but its not a big deal....
ME:
Later he came back and asking if his wife could cash it.
I told him I had already shredded his app and would have to start all over again. And he had already signed the check and she'd have to get a players card.
I asked the supervisor and she is awesome and said they'd both have to finger print it lol He left in a huff again.
Came back LATER AGAIN and asked if he could do a credit card transaction which if you do that you are sent to the cage and have to fingerprint the paper which I told him THREE times. Lucky for him his wife did it and didn't mind it.
I was almost wondering if he believed in aliens, had a record or was just odd.
But it was weird. I was mad for awhile cuz I wasted so much time with him. But weird, right!?
