Hand Hell - buttons to push banking at the ATM

Greetings, Readers!

Welcome to Hand-Hell daily indignity #4, a trip to the ATM. I am thankful to be in a situation where we deposit more money in the bank than we withdraw, so we have an ample emergency cushion.

The pain when visiting the ATM is the literal pain of having to push the buttons with ulcerated fingertips. Yes, it is true that only 8 out of 10 fingers are ulcerated right now. However, without a good thumb, having a good pinky and ring finger are only a start.

Before getting to pressing buttons, the ATM card has to be wrested from its position slid snugly in the wallet. All of which has to be drawn out of a purse (zippers!) while sketchy tweakers linger down the block.

The best option is to bend the finger and use the knuckle side to press the buttons. This tried-and-true workaround gets easier with practice and works on touch screen surfaces too!

Just imagine going through all this to discover an overdrawn account or other bummer. Ugh.
