I went to bank this morning. Instead of standing 1 in line to talk to a bank teller 2, I decided 3 to use an ATM, but it wasn’t working.



Robin 4: Excuse me. Could you help me? I’m trying to use this ATM machine, but it stopped working after I put in my PIN and it won’t give me back my ATM card.



Bank clerk: It looks like the machine is jammed. Step over to this teller window and I can help you. What transactions are you trying to make?



Robin: I want to make a deposit, transfer some money between my checking and savings 5 accounts, and make a cash withdrawal 6.



Bank clerk: I can make those transactions for you.



Robin: Okay. Let me take this check out of the deposit envelop 7. And what about my card?



Bank clerk: I’ll call the technician and she should be able to retrieve 8 it for you.



Robin: Thanks a lot. I guess that the machine just doesn’t like me.



Bank clerk: It’s not you. Those machines just act up sometimes.



Robin: In that case, I won’t take it personally.
