Had the following exchange at my bank yesterday--
You can't blame this kind of thing on the language barrier. It's just pure stupidity or something. Actually, I have no idea what it is - but it happens to me every time I go to the bank.
Me: I'd like to deposit this check into my (pausing for effect and speaking extra slowly and plainly) c-h-e-c-k-i-n-g account.
Bank Teller (looking me in the eye and nodding his head): Yes, OK.
He types on the keyboard and looks at the check for a minute and then says...
Bank Teller: Checking or savings account?
