No, I’m not talking about Big Foot or PlatyPus.<\/p>\n

Nor am I talking about a winged lizard nor a walking turnip.<\/p>\n

Not even a man with the head of a bird and the ears of an elephant.<\/p>\n

Nope, it’s something I saw on the Web on Saturday evening and again this morning.<\/p>\n

\"Key<\/center><\/p>\n

If you want to see in real-time my incredible discovery for yourself, go here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dare I hope a Key Bank person sees this?<\/i><\/p>\n

Now tell me, how’s that a transitional life form?<\/b><\/p>\n

And another question, what general life lessons do you see in the screen capture above?<\/b><\/p>\n

And this one yet: How might this post fit under Christianity 101?<\/b><\/p>\n

\n

OK, now it’s 7:54 am on Tuesday, February 19, 2008<\/b> — and nobody’s tried answering my questions.<\/p>\n

To answer the first question, here’s what I just got done commenting to Key Bank:<\/p>\n\n\n
www.key.com\/managecredit seems to me to be a transitional life form.<\/p>\n

That is, it’s between Brick-and-Mortar philosophy and Web-Business philosophy.<\/p>\n

We can do account management online . . . if we do it during certain business hours on business days.<\/p>\n

So Saturday I noticed that my payment was due on 2\/18. But I couldn’t pay online since it wasn’t Monday-Friday.<\/p>\n

So Monday I tried to make a payment, but couldn’t since it was a holiday and your Bricks-and-Mortars were closed.<\/p>\n

This morning I was finally able to make a payment. (Thanks for the convenience of using the Web!) Alas, it’s late.<\/p>\n

Transitional life forms are frustrating. And in my online banking experience, Key is so far unique. In a not-so-positive way.<\/p>\n

Do you have plans to transition fully into the Web-Business philosophy?<\/p>\n

Thanks.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
