About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. A delivery driver arrived early one morning, only to discover that the WesTex Federal Credit Union doors were mysteriously ajar. He peered inside and found an empty lobby, except for a lone envelope on the counter. The envelope contained a note scribbled in childish handwriting: ‘Sorry for the inconvenience! We’re closed today.’ The delivery driver smiled, shook his head, and left without even thinking of filing a report. Back home, he showed it to his neighbor, who just shrugged and said, ‘Probably some kid had too much time on their hands.’

2. One foggy morning, a delivery driver approached the WesTex Federal Credit Union, wondering if anyone had ever seen such thick mist in these parts before. As he stepped inside, an elderly teller smiled warmly and asked, 'Morning, stranger! Is that fog outside or are you just having a bad hair day?' The delivery driver looked around sheepishly and replied, 'I guess I'll never know for sure!' And with a laugh, everyone went back to their routine—except maybe the delivery guy checked his reflection every now and then.

3. One autumn afternoon, as customers were leaving early after work, someone noticed an old man wheeling a bicycle into the parking lot of WesTex Federal Credit Union. He parked it next to the entrance and disappeared inside without a word. Inside, no one paid much attention until he emerged with a small bag full of pens and pencils. Smiling sheepishly, he explained that he was just helping himself to some freebies from the employee lounge. A security guard chuckled and waved him off, saying, 'Welcome to WesTex—we’re always happy to help our neighbors!'

4. A quiet Tuesday morning dawned over downtown Austin, and a delivery driver named Alex pulled up to the WesTex Federal Credit Union. As he stepped out of his truck, he heard a faint humming sound coming from inside the building. Curious, Alex cracked open the door—only to discover that the hum was actually an old fan on silent mode. Inside, everyone was calmly working away, oblivious to the noise. Turns out, it had been there for months, and no one ever bothered to turn it back on. That day, WesTex became famous for its invisible fan.
