    Who the hell still carries around paper checks?

    Old people who wish to punish everyone else in line at the grocery store.

        I fix cars at a big retail chain and yep. There’s instant verification now where in order to accept it we have to punch all the info into some service on the POS computer to make sure the check clears, but if it does, yeah we take those. Money is money. Checks are still issued and cashed by banks so we still take em.
