I just had to vent about this for a minute. My husband's company refuses to use direct deposit and it is such a pain in the butt. There are well over 1,000 employees so it's crazy to me that they wouldn't want to get away from tracking paper checks every week, but the old lady who runs the payroll department will not go for it.

He travels a lot and it causes us so much trouble. If we're on the road together we have to get someone at the main office to deposit his check every week. Plus, there are benefits our bank offers to people with direct deposit and we're obviously not eligible. I know people survived for years without direct deposit, but when you have something that would be so much more convenient for everyone involved available, why not take advantage of it?
