    Those are just terrible employees who likely have such a sedentary way of working that they serve the same dozen clients every week and feel put out by anyone they don’t know.

    Go back and fucking do it again. Seriously.

    Punish them for not handling their goddamn job like professionals. In fact, when you go back to do it again, casually mention that you’ll be writing the branch manager and you’re glad they’re able to go to such lengths for you. I am not even kidding, they’re being passive-aggressive by performing this big act and deserve to lose even more of their time and patience. You don’t owe them anything, much less an explanation, you pay all their paychecks. You’re the person who has the money, they should be falling over themselves to make sure you, the guy with the money, is taken care of and secure. Their entire business model depends on making people feel comfortable leaving their money with them. You’re the boss.

    edit: if this triggers you, you’re probably an entitled employee. You either do not understand how businesses and employment work or you have an emotional issue and shouldn’t be working a customer-service role. Seriously, if you call this “karen” attitude, you’re emotionally spoiled. We have, unfortunately, a capitalist society where if you want to afford basics and succeed at all, you HAVE to work for it (unless you’re born into wealth, in which case jump into a volcano) and if you don’t understand what makes businesses succeed, you won’t succeed, change your delicate little perspective. I get this site’s demographic but you HAVE to work to survive, you’re not toppling the system through fucking Lemmy. Go get a job and succeed at it so you have some money to throw around at your causes and be respected. Save money, break your bad habits, take control of your health, go fucking outside and breath. If you’re getting upset about things you read on the internet you’re part of the problem whichever side you’re on.

      Oh my god FUCK OFF, KAREN. That first paragraph is entirely a product of a situation you - and you alone - imagined, based your own self-indulgent righteousness and prejudice. If the bank has bullshit processes, even the most egregious simpleton would see that by throwing a tantrum at the working class labourer who is as bound by them as you are, all you’re doing is succeeding at making their life worse while utterly failing to address the systemic issue causing the problem. You want to write a letter to their boss, complaining that the worker was hesitant to address an unusual query, you UTTER FUCKING NARK? Get a sense of perspective. You soulless husk.

      They’re just people doing a job that their boss made needlessly annoying. They shouldn’t need to open a vault to get a couple hundred bucks.

      Don’t punish the workers, punish the boss
