Stressed, i needed phone credit desperatly, job is heavily on the line.
.
walk into a mega supermarket, I have 55 Euro's in pocket
walk into a bank
take a number
(try not to memorize it) one wait
wait (take out euros from pocket and flatten them)
pling*
go to desk, elderly lady,died brown hair
"I would like to change this money"
I place, 55 Euros, on counter
she asks
"Do you have an account here (in this bank)"
"No i Don't"
She takes the money
and sighs................
never looking at me, she straightens the money repeatedly
she straightens them some more
silence
she then says
"these are ugly"
I say
"excuse me?"
she says
"my customers will never accept this" (while stroking the cash)
my brain implodes
silence
She then looks up and,
while handing my money back to me,
she says
" I think you should change this at another bank.................here it will cost you 50kr to change it."
Delete brain.
Took money and went back to work.
--------------------------------------------
never before have i seen such narrow mindedness.
She needs to travel.
I regret not totally letting go on her, it hurt me, but i has too much work to finish before i realized.
What would you have replied?
