Curious, he glanced through the window and saw an elderly gentleman in a suit, carefully placing coins into the coin slot of the ATM. The delivery driver watched in amusement for a moment before deciding to help. He quietly opened the door and approached the old man, who didn’t seem to notice anything unusual. ‘Excuse me,’ said the driver gently. The old fellow turned around, smiled warmly, and replied, “Just making sure our bank doesn’t miss out on its daily coin deposit.” They both laughed, and from that day on, the driver became a regular visitor during his deliveries.

'We don’t keep piggy banks overnight,' she replied. The old man nodded knowingly and said, 'Of course not, I was just testing your honesty.' Then he winked and left, leaving everyone in the bank laughing.
