So I get through cleaning windows at my customers house last friday and ring the doorbell to collect my check, the husband comes to the door and writes the check while engadging me in conversation, I put the check in my clipboard thank him and leave.
The next morning my wife gets ready to go to the bank to deposit the check when she notices that the guy had written $394 in the small space, but then had written out Three hundred and 00/94 c
The bank will go with whats actually written out, so i call the customer and the wife answers, shes the one who actually hired me and I knew the husband was peed off about it, I explain to her what happened and then drive over to exchange checks.
You could tell she was embarrassed and he of course didn't come to the door, I have no doubt that he tried on purpose to rip me off.
