About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Mission Federal Credit Union. As he opened the van door, something peculiar caught his ear—a soft, rhythmic tapping sound coming from inside. Curious, he leaned in and saw an old pencil tapping against a calculator, leaving tiny droplets of ink on the keys. A gruff voice muttered, 'Three times twelve is thirty-six...' Turns out, it was just a regular doing some early-morning calculations for his family's business. The delivery driver walked away smiling, thinking, ‘Next time I’ll bring doughnuts.’
2. At dawn one day, an elderly gentleman walked into Mission Federal Credit Union and approached the counter with a serious expression. ‘Excuse me,’ he said in a hushed voice, ‘I believe I’ve found your new motto.’ The teller leaned forward curiously. ‘And what might that be?’ The old man smiled mysteriously and whispered, ‘“Where dreams come true… for those who deposit!”’ Everyone burst out laughing, including the old man himself, as he left with a twinkle in his eye.
3. One autumn afternoon, a curious neighbor asked the teller, ‘Do you really close early on Thursdays?’ The next Thursday, everyone noticed the doors were locked tight. Soon enough, word spread that the credit union was closed for good. But one Friday morning, as a regular customer arrived early for his monthly deposit, he found the doors ajar and the place buzzing with activity—only it was just the staff having an impromptu party. Turns out, they’d decided to celebrate their unexpected early retirement by throwing themselves a farewell bash.
4. At sunset one day, a jogger noticed something odd near Mission Federal Credit Union. The neon sign blinked not just numbers but also a strange message: "Your balance is growing!" No matter how much money he withdrew or deposited, the sign always seemed cheerfully optimistic. One day, a delivery driver stopped in front of the credit union and saw the sign glowing brightly: ‘Your balance is now infinite!’ He drove off, thinking it was a prank, only to return later with an empty truck—his balance truly felt infinite after all his deliveries that day. In reality, though, the sign had simply malfunctioned during rush hour.
