The Bank
So today, we went to the bank. We have to go each month to deposit money in an account for our electricity. If we don't deposit money, they will shut off our electricity. So we go in today and immediately a woman approaches us and tells us she speaks English. We tell her what we are there to do, and she escorts us to a long line full of Chinese people and tells us to wait. Not more than a minute passes and she comes back for us. She tells us to follow her as we wind around to the back of the bank. In this area there are more tellers, but it is much nicer and there are no lines. We walk right up and deposit our money. As we leave the back, we walk back through the front and past all the people we were waiting with just moments ago. Andre says as we are leaving "I think we were just given the 'red carpet' treatment." Uhhh...you think?
