**Disclaimer** This is
in no way to insult people who actually have a reason to not understand or are
unable to be good customers like the old people but to all the lazy ignorant
people***
Every day I deal with customers who are completely lost
when it comes to banking. Yes, I work in the banking industry and it does get
complicated but the things I’m talking about are so simple and things that EVERY
ADULT should know. I mean come on people these are your FINANCES we are talking
about!!!! I come into contact with complete idiots each and every day and they
make me really wonder how they have managed in the adult world their entire
lives and they don’t know how to locate their account number on their own
check. I remember when I learned how to read a check, write a check, and
balance a check book. Mrs. Byrd’s 3rd grade Math class. NaShae and
I used to make Kleenex and Elmer glue blobs on the inside of our desk but we
learned how to manage our checkbooks. I’m positive that to this day NaShae is a
responsible customer at her local bank. I wish there were more NaShae and
Megans in the world. If you are one of these irresponsible people please learn
from this and get yourself together. Yeah I know you’re supposed to trust your
banker but if you don’t know what you’re trusting them with what’s the
point?
A few things that customers have
said, haven’t said, do or don’t do that are VERY annoying when you encounter
these things day after day! Or in other words the things that make us laugh and
slap our heads and say ooofffff! J
Can you send me a check cashing
slip? FYI- the check is
sufficient in itself to cash…there are not such things as check cashing
slips
I need to know the balance of my
checkings account. FYI- it is
CHECKING
If I say hello to you in the drive
through and you say hello back and then send in an empty tube……then you make no
sense because now I have to speak to you again and ask what you needed! LOGICAL
people would greet me back and then say…do you mind sending me ___________?
- When customers ask for their balance
and commence to make a scene because it’s in the negative. Usually this is
followed by an angry statement like “I JUST DON’T KNOW HOW THIS CAN
HAPPEN” FYI- Because
everyday you are at my window wanting to know your balance and every transaction
that has came through…therefore telling me you don’t keep up or even try to keep
up with your spending…SO customer this happens because you spend MORE than you
have! I know rocket science right? It’s simple math.
- Stealing pens and I’m talking all
out making a distraction so you can swipe it off the
counter. FYI- I would gladly
give it to you just ask or tell me hey I need a pen I’m going to take this
one.
- My all time pet peeve is when a
totally capable person who knows how to fill out all their items correctly, who
have even wrote their account number on the back come to me and throw it down
and say I need to deposit this into XXXXX account. REALLY you have been standing
your lazy ass at the island for like 10 minutes signing your checks…the island
that has deposit slips and everything right in front of you and then you are
rude and expect me to be your little banking slave! FYI- I’m somewhat
of nice person but really that’s not the reason I put up with this type of
behavior. I put up with it because I have to because that’s “good customer
service” and because I would get fired from a really good job that I like if I
told you do it yourself.
Long rant short… if you do any of
these things then please be responsible and smartin’ yourself up. It not only
makes you capable but it makes you look better in other people’s eyes and of
course makes my job less aggravating. Banking from a customer’s point of view
is easy and it’s your money why wouldn’t you want to know how to do it
correctly???
Cubicle with only a computer and a
phone and no customers….I dream of you daily! J
