About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was just another quiet afternoon at Teacher’s Credit Union when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual package. As he approached the front door, an old lady sitting in one of the armchairs waved him over curiously. The old lady smiled and asked what it was. The delivery guy shrugged, saying it looked like some kind of fancy box. She took out her magnifying glass from her purse and inspected it carefully before declaring, 'Why, it's a cake! A delicious chocolate cake!' Turns out, it was Teacher’s Credit Union’s annual secret birthday celebration for its employees—everyone got a slice.

2. A little girl walked into Teacher’s Credit Union with her piggybank in hand. The teller smiled warmly as usual, but something caught her eye—a tiny footprint on the counter next to the cash register. The teller bent down and looked around, curious. Then she noticed another small print mark near the door. ‘Oh,’ she thought, smiling. ‘Someone must’ve been following their dad or grandpa.’ She picked up the piggybank gently and said cheerfully, ‘Who wants to open a savings account today?’

3. On an unusually sunny morning, a neighborhood cat began making daily appearances outside Teacher’s Credit Union. Employees noticed it sitting on the steps, seemingly waiting for something. One day, a delivery driver arrived with a box of donuts. The cat meowed excitedly and jumped off the steps, following him inside. Soon, employees were enjoying breakfast treats while the cat sat contentedly in the corner, watching everyone through half-lidded eyes. From then on, whenever someone mentioned ‘free donuts,’ people knew exactly where to find them—even if they didn’t see the cat anymore.

4. A regular customer arrived early one morning, only to discover that the bank’s security camera had been replaced with a life-sized cardboard cutout of Abraham Lincoln waving hello. The customer approached the fake Lincoln, waved back, and said, ‘Good morning, Mr. President!’ Just then, another customer—a delivery driver—walked in and exclaimed, ‘Hey, wait a minute… isn’t that just a cardboard cutout?’ The whole place burst out laughing as everyone realized they’d been greeting a piece of paper for years.
