Bankers do it just for money.
Bankers charge a fee each time they do it.

Bankers Do It...Bankers do it with varying rates of interest.

Bankers do it with a penalty for early withdrawal.

  I once had a commercial customer come to my teller window for a change order.  I was a little confused when, according to her change order list, she asked for $45 in ten dollar bills along with the other currency.  She argued with me when I told her that was impossible.   After about ten minutes of trying to convince her, I finally had to count out four bills which she agreed was $40.  I added one more which totaled $50.  She finally believed me.


THE young woman who entered our bank to cash a check looked so hesitant that I went to help her. "Please sign the back of the check," I told her, "as you'd sign a letter." She looked at me gratefully, scribbled on the check and passed it to me. Signed on the back was: "Yours affectionately, Pamela.


THE bank where I work had just installed its first 24 hour cash machine. I encouraged an elderly gentleman to take an application for the new plastic identification cards, explaining that he would be able to get cash any time of day or night. He declined, saying, "Lady, anything I'd need money for that late at night I shouldn't be doing."


I WENT to my bank to refinance a loan on my yacht. Making small talk with the loan officer, I told her that she was the main reason I came to that branch. Not even looking up from her paperwork, the loan officer responded, "You don't fool me, sailor. I'll bet you have a woman in every bank."
   

AT THE bank where I used to work, we tellers were constantly cautioned either to know the person who wanted to cash a cheque or to request proper identification. One time a young man, who minutes before could produce no ID, returned to my window with what he considered the perfect identification. Tucked under his arm was his high-school yearbook opened to his class picture. I cashed his cheque.
