       Ok… so now can I open a current account?
       Yes, of course.
       A telephone ring is heard.
       Just a minute, Daniel. Hello?
       Hello?! This is David Cohen speaking.
       I don’t understand what’s going on in this bank! All my checks bounce!
       Really? Which checks?
       A check for 20,000 shekels, a check for 30,000 shekels,
       a check for 50,000 shekels…
       Mr. Cohen?
       Yes?
       You only have 5,000 shekels in (your) account.
       That’s why all your checks bounce.
       I don’t understand! I’ve been in this bank for 30 years!
       Can’t you help me a little?
       I don’t think we can help. Excuse me.
       No? Ok, I want to move banks. Today. Right now. This instant!!!
       Just a minute, Mr. Cohen. The manager will speak with you, all right?
       Excuse me, Daniel. It’s like this in Israel… Everyone thinks the bank belongs
       to them [is theirs].
       That’s ok. I want to open a current account.
       Ok… are you in debit?
       No, I’m not in debit [I’m in credit]. I have 20,000 shekels.
       Excellent. Do you want a credit card? Checks?
       I want a credit card, and I don’t want checks. I don’t need checks right now.
       Well, we have an attractive account for soldiers: The commissions are very low.
       You don’t pay interest for overdraft and receive interest for credit. Ok?
       Terrific.
