Obtaining a checking account at the World Bank

You might need some ID, but the credit line is rather high!
While the meetings might only happen two times a year, the World Bank is open from 9-5 every week day. Since you a citizen of the World, why not obtain a bank account at the World Bank?``

Obtain a bank account at the World Bank:
Items needed: 100+ people and professional business attire

1) Make sure everyone dresses nice
2) Do not bring any metals items with you (you'll make it through the metal detector faster)
3) Come from all directions to not show prior organization
4) Casually approach the door to the World Bank, like business as usual
5) A line will begin to slowly amass as the first people make their way inside
3) This first person needs to approach the main desk
4) Ask the person working if you can obtain the proper forms for a bank account...

Now the attendent might refuse at first. But do not take no for an answer. Eventually, after more and more people begin lining up outside of the bank waiting to get inside, the person might just give you the papers.... Or call security. But at least you will have almost obtained a World Bank account, or better yet, a few of your friends are on their way up the elevator heading to the New Accounts Department.
