About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a regular muttered to himself as he waited in line: ‘Why does it always take forever for my transaction here?’ The teller smiled and replied, ‘Because you’re the only one who ever asks.’ Finally, an elderly gentleman approached the counter with a box of donuts. He asked, 'Can I make a deposit?' The teller looked up and said, 'Of course, sir!' Then she added with a smile, 'Would you like to try one of these? They’re on us today.'

2. One day, an elderly gentleman approached the teller and asked with a twinkle in his eye: 'Can I deposit this invisible check?' The teller smiled politely but shook her head. ‘I’m sorry, sir,’ she replied gently, ‘we can only accept checks that are visible.’ The old man laughed heartily and said, ‘No worries, dear. It was just a whim anyway!’ And he walked away, leaving behind a warm smile on everyone’s face.

3. One afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the drive-through window and asked the teller, 'How come you never ask if I want to upgrade my transaction?' The teller smiled and replied, ‘Oh, that’s because your transactions are always so small.’ The driver thought for a moment then said, ‘Actually, can I upgrade to a larger transaction?’ Everyone in line burst out laughing as the teller processed his new, much bigger order.

4. At closing time, a small dog rushed into the lobby, sniffing curiously around the counters. The cashiers watched, amused, until it stopped abruptly before the ATM, staring intently at its screen. Suddenly, the dog began pressing buttons on the keyboard with his little paws. Everyone burst out laughing as the ATM started printing out receipts like crazy. A delivery driver walked over and said, 'I guess he’s just trying to tell us something!'
