Time to move to a new bank

I don’t do much ‘banking’, basically on routine, every other week I run through the drive through and deposit my work check. On rare occasion, such as today, I needed to complete an additional task at the bank, but low and behold the bank was closed.

Hmmmm, what freaking waste of time. Taking some time out of my lunch break to drive up to the bank to find out they aren’t even open.

Well, there is a TCF 3 doors down from my office and they are business as usual today. So, sorry M&I, looks like I’m taking my fortunes to another establishment.

Valid reason to look for a new job??

My commute is just not long enough. Ever since I got the iPod and have been back into listening to podcasts, I like to listen to them while driving. Unfortunately I really only drive to and from work(in my own car). For some reason the tape player in our work van doesn’t like the cassette adapter I bought, so I can’t listen while driving the work van.

So yesterday morning, as is typical in my daily routine, I get in the car, plug in the iPod and start a podcast, then start on my way to work. Yesterday I started listening to Technorama. I didn’t get to hear much at all. When I got to work and looked at the play timer, it only took me 3 minutes and 54 seconds to get to work. It almost doesn’t feel worth trying to listen to anything in that short amount of time.

So, yes, I need a new job with a longer commute. Maybe downtown Chicago so my daily commute would total about 4 hours.
