Randolph-Brooks Federal Credit Union

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while a little girl waited for her dad outside the credit union, she noticed something odd—a small bird kept flying in circles around the parking lot. Curious, she asked her dad why it behaved so strangely. He shrugged and said, ‘They say that whenever someone makes a really big deposit here, the bird starts dancing.’ Soon enough, everyone started watching the bird with anticipation. One day, an excited delivery driver rushed inside, shouting, 'I just made a huge deposit!' And sure enough, the bird took off in a mad spin, causing laughter and cheers from passersby. From then on, whenever anyone saw that bird doing its little dance, they knew something special had happened within those walls.

2. In the early afternoon, a delivery driver pulled up to the credit union's loading dock and noticed something peculiar—a small bird had somehow managed to get stuck inside one of the security cameras. The delivery driver gently opened the camera cover and freed the flustered little creature. As he did so, an elderly gentleman walking past the building paused, smiled warmly, and said, 'Looks like someone’s day just got brighter!' The bird flew off, leaving behind only a few giggles and a newfound sense of community for everyone present.

3. In the late evening, a neighbor knocked on the door of the credit union manager and asked, ‘Have you noticed how our ATM seems to be talking back?’ The manager peered suspiciously through the glass window but saw nothing unusual. Smiling, he replied, 'No, I haven't heard anything.' The neighbor shrugged and said, 'Just thought I'd mention it—maybe it's just an old computer glitch.' They both laughed, and the neighbor left. Later that night, while closing up, the manager overheard the ATM whispering softly in another language. Shaking his head with a smile, he muttered, 'Guess I'll never know what that machine is trying to say!'

4. Have you heard about the time someone tried to withdraw happiness from Randolph-Brooks? It happened one day when an elderly gentleman approached the counter and asked if he could cash in some joy. The teller smiled warmly and replied, 'I'm sorry sir, but we're only authorized to handle dollars, cents, and maybe a smile or two on special occasions.' The old man nodded understandingly, took out his checkbook, and wrote a deposit for ten happy thoughts—leaving everyone with a hearty laugh.
