After reading Tim’s recent How To Be Cool Tip, I started noticing how some people could be un-cool in that way.  Yesterday, for example, I needed to use the ATM and there was a guy in front of me who was clearly un-cool.  I was watching what he was doing (I politely averted my eyes when he entered his pin number) and I found his troubles to be a bit amusing and irritating at the same time.  He punched how much he wanted to withdraw and the screen said he had to enter an amount that was a multiple of $20.00.  So he entered $20.00 and then the screen said that amount exceeded the available funds of $0.00.  He hit cancel and then proceed to do exactly the same thing two more times.  He must have thought he could make the machine do his bidding.  So then he tried a different card, and then did the first two steps exactly the same (I guess his math skills weren’t good enough to calculate multiples of $20.00).  Finally he got a twenty dollar bill out of the machine, and then the screen asked him if he wanted to continue banking, he pressed yes.  Then he pressed the cancel button in order to get his card back.  But he wasn’t done yet; after checking the account balance on his receipt he decided to get another twenty dollars.  By this time he finally figured out how to enter the correct amount of funds he wished to withdraw; however, again when asked if he wanted to continue banking he pressed yes and then had to hit the cancel button in order to get his card back.  I almost felt sorry for him.
