there's
this
teller
at
my
bank.
he's
from
nigeria.
i
can't
remember
his
name
.
he
has
a
kind
face
.
his
accent
is
so
thick
it's
hard
for
some
people
to
understand
him
sometimes
.
i
do
just
fine
.
the
only
trouble
i
ever
had
came
the
last
time
i
was
there
.
i
knew
my
chequing account
was
in
the
red
.
i
hadn't
deposited
any
money
in
a
long
time
.
what
was
left
was
bound
to
run
out
at
some
point
after
getting
eaten
by
monthly
fees.
i
gave
the
teller
a
hundred bucks
to
put
in
the
account. "
to
cancel
the
negative
,"
he
said
.
but
that
wasn't
what
i
heard
him
say
.
what
i
heard
was
, "
you
can't
sell
the
negative
."
even
if
it
was
an
accident
of
intonation,
there
was
truth
stitched
into
the
mistake
.
no
one
wants
to
buy
that
shit
.
