That checks out, once you check that task off I’ll send your check, just make sure you check it before depositing it.
EDIT: ChatGPT did a better job at this than I did.
In a game of chess, the king was in check, so the player paused to check his phone, where he received a check for his latest freelance project, after which he decided to check off his to-do list and check his coat at the restaurant’s check-in counter.
Yep, checks are used a lot by charities and churches, plus migrant workers are often paid by checks, and there’s market nearby that will cash all of their checks for them, and that market is a customer of my bank, so when they bring in their deposit, it’s a stack of checks at least 6 inches tall every day. And that’s honestly not even half of the checks we see a day.
Man, that’s some hyperbole. Ain’t nobody believing you haven’t seen a check in 40 years. It’s not for every day use but there’s always something that needs a check for some dumb reason, like setting up direct deposit or paying the emergency plumber. Stuff comes up.
Believe it, bub. In backwater places like Brazil people have moved on from credit and debit cards to fully digital systems like Pix. Meanwhile my town in Tennessee will take only cash or cheque for taxes.
Other than getting paid for a few labor jobs out of high school, I haven’t seen a cheque used ever, so I can believe it. Banks give sheets with direct deposit info, and any tradespeople I’ve hired have taken various other forms of payment.
For reference, this is in Canada though, so not the default.

Late 80s is only 35 years ago, but other than that believe it. It’s true. In 1991 Maestro launched and everyone moved over to debit card payments.
The cheques only really disappeared in 2002 when the bank guarantees stopped, but I haven’t seen one in the wild since I was a little little lad. I have never ever ever had a checkbook in my own name.

My last emergency plumber was a kid in his twenties. I don’t think he even knows what a check is. But he definitely knows what a debit card is, and has a portable terminal.
