Our Credit Union has a home banking feature that is run by one of the credit union workers. The woman that runs the web page is a divorced mother of three with a severe chip on her shoulder. He ex-husband worked down the road from the credit union and sometimes would stop in to see his wife. In fact sometimes he would stop in when she wasn't working. He always got along with all of the other ladies in the CU and sometimes would take one or two of them out for lunch.
Well, One of these lunches lasted too long. In fact it lasted about 3 weeks when the CU got a postcard from Rio. It probably wasn't a good idea to send the postcard to everyone in the CU with the words:
"Having fun in the sun with my little Bun and thinking of all of you - with a "special" hello to Rita."
Rita, didn't take kindly to being publicly humiliated, and you could tell that this really set her back. At first her demeanor changed in slight and subtle ways. She stopped selling candy bars for charity. Then she stopped handing out pocket calendars to patrons. After a few weeks, she became withdrawn and the security words that allowed you to get on the home banking website started to become jaded and misandric.
Every time I visited the Home banking site, I would have to type in security words such as:
Cheat
Suspicious
Infidelity
Divorce Lawyer
Alimony
Visitation rights
Creep
Pathological
I started to get paranoid. I wondered if I was the only one who was getting these words, but I was afraid to ask anyone else at work.
Finally, Rita had a breakdown at the Credit Union Christmas party. It appears that her former husband had sent everyone but her one of those pens with a picture on them. It had his new girlfriend and himself near the top and when you tip it upside down the ink covering their naked bodies would run down and show both of them fully exposed lying on a beach.
Rita exploded and tore one of the pens from a co-workers hand and started to stab her with it. The black ink unfortunately caused a horrible eczema condition on the poor victims arm and Rita was subsequently fired from her job and was sued.
The only good news in this terrible tragety was that the security words eventually went back to typical words like:
Freelance
Potato
Artistic
Jumpsuit
Dollar
They don't make pens like that anymore. My mom use to have one it was green and white and when you flipped it upside down the guys pants faded away. Those were classics.
ReplyDeletePoor Rita. But I thought you said he was her "ex". What does she care if he's her ex? Momma always said "Good riddens to bad rubbish"
