This is one of the smartest things for the world, imagine the paper savings. From my personal experience 90%+ of workers already have direct deposit, with no need for check stubs. I use to have 60 associates and 3 actually received a live check and eveyone that had direct deposit could care less if they received there stub, if they needed it for something they could print it online.

I think it's a great idea, provided that the debit card can be used over again as more funds are added. It should be similar to the debit card provided when you have a bank account.

Daily Horoscope for December 31

Pisces

Someone is extremely headstrong and defiant today, and there's every chance that you're the one fitting this description. The more others are trying to make you behave yourself or do what they want, the more determined you'll be to do the exact opposite. Well, it is a Full Moon, and a lunar eclipse in emotional Cancer, so you're excused! Show them that you're an individual in your own right without going completely overboard about it, because that will cause trouble. Then once you've got all that off your chest you can relax and look forward to a really Happy New Year!
