Just Missed a Bank Robbery...

Yesterday I wanted to put money in the bank before I went to court and wasn't positive the bank opened at 9am. So I pulled into the bank and saw a "customer" waiting in his car by the door.

Good sign I thought and proceeded to wait near the drive-through part. However, when it didn't open at 9:00 sharp, I wondered if I was mistaken and pulled around the bank to see if the hours were on the door.

I couldn't read the sign on the door from my car and the other "customer" was in the closest non-handicapped spot near the door so I thought I would wait a couple more minutes and went back to the drive-through part around the other side of the building.

At last the "open" light was on so I deposited my money and saw through the window that the other customer was just then walking inside. As I pullled away, the "customer" pullled out a gun! (But I didn't see that part. Didn't know about it til today).

Boy was I glad I didn't go inside the bank as I most often do! I would have been late for court for sure!

It is interesting because you have to wonder how things could have happened differently.

I wonder if its possible that had I gone into the bank; he wouldn't have.

And I wonder how I would have reacted had I been in the bank. Would I have been afraid or quietly confident? Would I have cooperated or become indignant? There is no way to know. One can only speculate...
