When I was complaining about the 10 pieces of paper, each needing a signature and a stamp, just to close one of my bank accounts, the clerk has informed me that some of their procedures has switched to an electronic signature instead. I was pumped! Until he finished the rest of the sentence. By the electronic signature he meant the squigly line, just on a touchscreen.
Some people strive to achieve the pure zen. At that moment I've achieved pure cringe instead.
It's strange though, because that same bank has an excellent API and batch processing available.
