Dec 2012

I owned a bank for a bit. We had a number of tellers, and tellers being human made mistakes. Well those mistakes would be positive some days and negative others for the most part.

Except one teller. He would of all things be in the negative every day. Not a lot mind you, but 40 to 100 dollars on the average. He never was in the positive not once.

You see sometimes there are consistencies. It is what let most of us know that Bush and co. were.... well manipulating data. Looking for a desired outcome so to speak.

So maybe you will find what you are looking for.

Good luck.
