Old School Banking Philosophy

Nice work on a bank teller!


serf


An old lady handed her bank card to the teller and said “I would like to withdraw $10”. The teller told her “for withdrawals less than $100, please use the ATM. The old lady wanted to know why... The teller returned her bank card and irritably told her “these are the rules, please leave if there is no further matter. There is a line of customers behind you”. The old lady remained silent for a few seconds and handed her card back to the teller and said “please help me withdraw all the money I have.” The teller was astonished when she checked the account balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and respectfully told her “you have $300,000 in your account but the bank doesn’t have that much cash currently. Could you make an appointment and come back again tomorrow? The old lady then asked how much she could withdraw immediately. The teller told her any amount up to $3000. “Well please let me have $3000 now.” The teller kindly handed $3000 very friendly and with a smile to her. The old lady put $10 in her purse and asked the teller to deposit $2990 back into her account. The moral of this story is.... Don’t be difficult with old people, they spent a lifetime learning the skill.

    And she had all the time in the world to mess with the teller.

    Love it. I'm going to make a copy and give it to the "drive thru" girl at our local bank. She would really get a kick out of it😄

    I had an educational store with a color copier. I made my own deposit tickets for the local bank without buying extras that cost. One night I am in the drive thru line and made the daily deposit. New girl in the bank window had a fit and says... You are counterfeiting deposit tickets. I laughed, got out the truck, locked it up in line and went inside. VP of the bank looks at me and just grins but says you need to buy the deposit tickets. I laugh and told him to close the acct. Took the cashiers check across the street to another bank. Told them what happened and they seen no problem. Said I could put all the money I wanted in their bank.
