While running errands, I stopped by the bank to deposit a couple checks (no that's not the odd happening...). There' no easy place at the ATM to do all the writing required to document the checks, etc, so I walked in the back and sat on their couch to do this paperwork. I glanced around and it seemed like the tellers and receptionist, etc were discussing a shower ... baby shower, I think.
I wandered outside again and dinked with the ATM transferring money between accounts, checking levels, depositing the money ... whatnot. Anyway, I kept hearing voices asking people to step over to the end of the building. I ignored them, intent on doing my errands/it had nothing to do with me/ whatever. Finally one of the voices got louder and said "Pssst, lady at the ATM, come over HERE." I glanced up and a couple Sherriffs were gathering people around the corner of the building. I'd finally gathered all my stuff up and came over. I could scarcely hear what they were saying. It turns out there had been a robbery alarm tripped inside the bank. They must have been there a while, cause they knew I'd been in the bank and wanted to know what I'd seen. They seemed discouraged that I hadn't noticed a blessed thing except the shower discussion. They finally went in found it had been a false alarm.
I'm not sure why I feel so guilty/shepish for not noticing anything...
