The Bank Bitch

[100%]

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?

I'd have said:-

"Don't panic, I'm from teh internets"

Then I'd have kicked her in the cunt.

lol, they cant pull that crap in america. unless its ripped in half or fake they have to take it.
i love bringing foreign money to my bank, the girl looks at me all confused and pissed. she knows this is gonna be a hassle.

In after thought i should have said

"Would you like to be in my
film? I'm looking for the face of officious stupidity to have served up on a
plate at a festival celebrating the northern barbarian's misanthropy jive to
ragnarok. Here's my number"

Or,
" They look better than you do"

Or
"Well, I thought if I messed them up a bit you wouldn't notice they were
fake"


Or, better still

"You mean you're customers wouldn't like them because they're worn/old, or
because they're European?"

maybe should have simply expressed sympathy, and
made it heartfelt, for what a horrrrrrid job she has.

Look her steadily and kindly in the eye and say with all
compassion "You poor, poor thing".

Bitch

What you should have done was frowned, "tut tutted" at her, and then marked something down in a notebook.

Then you should have asked her for her full name, and her managers name, and said you are from Head Office and were conducting a customer service survey in a random selection of local branches in order to determine where the least effective customer service was being given, with a view to shutting down the worst branches.

You then proceed to tell her that she has now placed her branch at the top of the closure list.

Then you say "Have a nice day", and walk out.

Problem is the country i am in is not my first language, had this been in holland or english speaking country, i would have reacted faster.
Damn you tower of babel.

oh if only
moments like that cause cancer in anus.

Could be worse, seems the latest trend in UK banking is to ban the poor. Because like they say, not all people are equal.
