My father was notorious for never sending the pen back through the drive-thru window at the bank. One-third of our junk drawer was filled with pens from our local bank.

Ha! I think most of the pre-pen security thefts were accidental. The others were probably old people (I know my grandmother was one).😊

Old people 🤦‍♂️ 🤣

The truth, it hurts, eh. 😁

Like Car Talk, but for homes. Dale would be able to tell you what year and model (and in my case, thing) you have just based on the sound you recorded on your phone.

For sure! Although now that I’m thinking of it maybe my phone could be my Dale 😀

Oh man, I need to find me a Dale. And, "stop touching that" is probably the most repeated phrase in my house right now. Who woulda thought that small boys would want to touch EVERYTHING? I'm 99% certain they would be the type of people to pocket pens wherever they go.

Thieves I tell ya!!!

I can say I’ve had many a technician in my home tell me I’ve made things worse. Particularly the garbage disposal.

That's funny about the bank pens.

I had a house for quite some time. Then I sold it and became a nomad. Part of me misses the steep learning curve of home ownership.

And part of me envies not having one 😉

You explore all the small curiosities that I want investigated. I’m sure your google search could warrant a bag of popcorn lol Also, I spent nothing short of 80 hours researching how mortgage loans and credit scores work. In the end, it was an ex-con on YouTube who gave me all I needed to know. A good vocational Home-Ec class in high school would be doable to share Dale’s knowledge. Send a copy of this post to your local school board with a petition to higher Dale as a vocational teacher. 🤷🏻‍♂️ great post though

I bet you’d make a great one as well!!!!

I haven't stepped into a bank since ... ... ... 2015? Greetings to innocent looking Maverick and catching-Mars-emissions Darla.

This last time was the first time in a while for me.
