Tellers who can't think outside the box!
My bank recently got a machine that spits out your cash based on what the Teller punches into the computer. The last two times I was there I was told the machine was jammed.
I asked if I could still cash a check and they said it was okay. Once a month I take out 1k for my needs. The Teller proceeds to count out 10x$100 bills. I said "That's not what I want... I want $200 in 50's and the rest in 20's." He says he doesn't have any 50's so I agree to take it all in 20's.
He starts to count 20,40,60,80,100...When he gets to four hundred he counts correctly but only puts down 4x20's. I slap the counter and say "Try again,young man." He makes it to $500 and starts a new pile. Again he makes the same mistake. He knows I'm now insulting him,his dog and his ancestry under my breath as I pick up my 1k and walk out the door.
Today I walk in the bank for my monthly cash and again the money machine was jammed. This time I get a young lady but when I give her my check and I.D. she gives it to the teller I had last time. I tell him I want $200 in 50's and the rest in 20's to which he says that they don't have any 50's.
This is when I lose my composure. "This is a Bank,isn't it? Don't you have a vault with some 50's back there? I want $200 in $50 dollar bills and the rest in 20's." That's when the lady in front of me says that she has 50's in her drawer. Why she didn't just wait on me in the first place is beyond me as well as why it took them 5min to exchange money with each other balancing their drawers.
What really cracks me up is that while I'm being waited on there is a petite lady under the counter and another lady who was possibly the head Teller is handing her huge stacks of money that was taken out of the broken machine. God only knows what they were doing but it sure wasn't very secretive.
Can't wait until next month to see what happens. I've already decided that I will ask for $100 in 50's, $200 in 20's, $200 in 10's...$300 in 5's and the rest in 1's. Now count it in front of me...I've got all day.
