One afternoon, an elderly gentleman entered Rio Grande Credit Union and approached the teller with a puzzled expression. ‘Excuse me,’ he said, ‘I just deposited my lucky coin here last week, but today it’s not working!’ The teller smiled gently. 'Sir,' she replied, 'your coin is perfectly fine—it's just that our ATM has a bit of a quirk. It only works for deposits on Thursdays!'
