About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar on the parking lot. Among boxes and packages, there lay an old, dusty violin case. Curious, he opened it during his break—only to discover a note inside reading: ‘Play me if you dare.’ Intrigued, he took it upstairs to the quiet lobby area and began playing softly. Soon enough, other employees joined in, creating impromptu music sessions every day. Before long, State Employees Credit Union became known as the place where even the most serious accountants danced during lunch breaks—and all thanks to that mysterious violin.

2. Early one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the State Employees Credit Union. As he unloaded packages from his truck, he heard a soft humming coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old man dancing around, gently tapping on the keyboard with his cane. ‘Excuse me,’ asked the driver politely. The man turned, smiled warmly, and replied, “Just helping our computers stay young!” And so, the legend of the credit union’s dancing senior member lives on as a friendly reminder that age is just a number.’

3. One afternoon, a delivery driver parked his truck next to the entrance and walked into the State Employees Credit Union. On his way out, he noticed an old coin collection lying in plain sight near the exit door. No one seemed to notice it. Curious, he picked up the box and found dozens of rare coins worth thousands. Smiling, he thought, ‘What if I just take a few?’ But then remembered his wife’s nagging about saving money. With a laugh, he left everything untouched and drove home, where his neighbor asked, “Did you rob the credit union today?” To which he replied, “Nah, they’re state employees—too honest!”

4. One day after work, a regular asked curiously: ‘Why does the same old lady always stand outside the credit union entrance?’ Another worker replied with a smile: ‘She’s our good-luck charm!’ The regular laughed and shook his head, then noticed an older man walking towards them with a pizza box. ‘Hey,’ he said, ‘is that your lucky charm delivering us lunch?’ Everyone burst out laughing as the delivery driver blushed and muttered something about being on duty.
