Message:: [QUOTE="T-Bone0804, post: 874433, member: 24608"]I guess I ought to clarify the Ike dollar issue since dishonesty seems to be a big issue. The coin counting machine does not accept, nor count Ike dollars. If one put an Ike in, it would not Count it. Your totall balance due would remain at zero. The bank in this regard did not lose out on any money. The only person who lost out was the person who deposited the ikes in the counter in the first place. Since that person is an annonymous individual that neither I nor the bank knew the identity of, who owns the Ikes? I tried to deny they were mine, but I was rudely informed by the teller that she thought they were mine. To me, that would idemnify the bank from their ownership. In either case, whether I took the Ikes or have them all to the teller, they would wind up in the economy one way or another. I happened to spend them on groceries. So was it so wrong to take something while not technically belonging to me, did not belon to the bank either? I would have gladly given them to the bank but I was told by the teller that they were mine. So who is at fault here? To me, it's the same as finding a $10 bill on the ground and asking the closest person if it's there's. If it is, great, but if they say no, do you put it back on the ground and walk away? I'd love to hear what people think. If I'm in the wrong, let me know, I'd appreciate the opinion.[/QUOTE]
