Lagos Chronicles 3 The ATM

If anyone had told me that I would one day stand on an ATM queue with the machine showing out of service... I would have said impossible. 😂
I went out that evening in a bid to withdraw cash and head to the market. I got to this bank and met about 4 people on the queue and nobody using the machine. When I asked, I was told the machine was out of service. I was shocked! I probed futher and I was told "na so e dey do;on and off". I decided to give it a few minutes. In about two minutes, when I was about walking away the machine spurred back to life. Wow! The two people in front withdrew and that was it... back to status quo 😂. I didn'teven consider leaving... I had been bitten by the bug! I stood gingerly... waiting

Soon, two guys joined us and were behind me on the queue. By the time I had waited about seven minutes, I gave up and decided to go. I had walked about 40m away when the guy that was right behind me called me saying the machine was back. I was pleasantly surprised.
Guess what, right after I withdrew before him... back to out of serice. I thanked him profusely and asked why he called me and he legit said because of the trumpet 😂😂😂 In case God decided to end the world.... he didn't want to be found wanting.

Thanks for reading my stories.

  2. 😂 😂, the guy appears to be a new convert. Well, all in all it's good to be good and to do the right thing always. Since you were still within range, I'm sure waiting an extra 5 - 10 minutes would be inconsequential.
