You can deposit checks via the bank app on your phone from home though...
Not cashing checks is stupid on every level. Whether it's payroll or business payments...companies can have expiration dates for their checks to be cashed. There's also the risk of people going out of business before you get your money. Imagine if you did a show in March 2020, didn't cash your check, and the club went out of business two months later due to the pandemic. These are hassles no logical person wants to deal with, especially when cashing a check is easier than ever.
