@@MelissaFreeman I actually love just saying 'Sorry, could I just ask you to go back to the front of the queue and I can call you forward in a few minutes.'
i know right!?!!! like i’m over here balancing and they just walk straight up so then i have to be like “she’ll be with you in a moment” and it’s so awkward 😩
Omg i haaaaaate when people think I'm flirting with them! Like no sir I'm just a nice person, don't get it twisted I'm just being nice don't make it weird lol🤣
I see this way too often when an Older (creepy) dude wants to push over his boundaries into a young female Bank Teller when I am waiting in line. I roll my eyes when this happens. I am 24 Year Old male and can sense this awkwardness.
People really don’t understand everything that goes into banking....its A LOT. I recently started a job as a teller and my brain hurts by the end of the day 😂 Banks make it easy for the customers but there’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes that the customers don’t know about.
The ID part is one of my biggest struggles. I am new teller and I get yelled at and insulted every time I ask for their ID. I see many people everyday and I can't remember them always especially being part time am not there always. Any tips on how to deal with rude customers like this? I like the bank , management , and my team but I can't take the rude treatment and am thinking about quitting but I am pregnant and can't afford being jobless or wait for another job. Please any tips to help me through with these rude customers?
Shane Lina you just remember that by asking for ID you’re just following procedure and doing your job. If they get rude I would simply say things like “I’m sorry Brenda I am just just trying to make sure I am giving the money to the correct person. I wouldn’t want someone come in and pretend to be you and me give your money away to the wrong person” once they realize you’re actual “protecting” them and have their best interest in mind then they change their tune. Otherwise if they’re simply just to hard to get along with I tell them they are more than welcome to wait in the persons like that knows them or speak to the manger on the issue. It’s hard not to say “kiss my ass I don’t get paid to deal with your BS” especially when pregnant 😂 but of course we can only do that after they leave!! Lol Working with the public can be hard! Hang in there
@@MelissaFreeman That's exactly what I tell them , and it's for their own protection but I get to hear their bs and how inconvenient it is for them. I even started to keep notes of people description, car make and color, etc to be able to recognize them since I am always in the drive through ,but I work in a small town and most of the rude people are the older generation who tell me they have been banking there before I was born. Thank you for replying though if it wasn't for the baby's sake so I can provide for him when he is born I wouldn't take their shit and the way they treat me. I so wish to tell them how I feel about the way they treat me but it wouldn't be so pleasant to their ears. I wish banks start adding photo ID to the system they use so when we pull their info we can see their photo so new tellers don't have to go through this.
Shane Lina all banks should definitely do that! & I was on drive thru for YEARS! & we had just came from a merger & we just got the new camera system where there’s no actual window & the older customers were PISSED every day & told me his much they hate it & of course it was my fault since I was at the “new” building LOL It’s just something that comes with them job but you’ll have BS like that anywhere you work. Maybe not quiet as bad but do you think your manager would let you work the line instead of drive through?
@@MelissaFreeman They won't let me work the line because we are going to have tellers coming from another branch because it's closing and they want the experienced ones upfront. I have been there only for two months. The front line is not any different though when i go upfront to help sometimes i get the same bs from the older people. I would just not do teller again in my life.
Back in 2014 i went to a wells fargo bank right after work to cash my check i swear she was very flirtatious, not gonna lie she was a fine woman. The way she talked to me with a flirtatious smile NOT A FRIENDLY SMILE, but flirtatious. While we were talking she pulled out a loli pop and asked me if i wanted a "sucker" the way she said it lol. I didn't know what to think because i just got off work kind of sweaty and had my work boots and everything. She was fine definitely 9/10. She was sucking on the sucker while talking to me the energy was definitely sexual.
lol I love your personality! Loved this video and your channel girly. I can't wait to see more of your content in the future! Keep up the amazing work! :)
This is totally accurate. I'm the only guy teller at my bank. Hate sweaty and wrinkly money, rude customers, entitled customers, but I overall love my job.
Omg the flirting thing is so real! Haha people have to realize that making connections is part of the job!! Lol the ‘take your money out of your ass crack’ killed me😂😂 Omg the burping is SO GROSS 🤢 Loved hearing your perspective!!!💕💕💕
They don’t ask what check... they might ask “are you cashing or depositing this check” which is a super clear question because cashing & depositing are 2 totally different things!! Is that what you mean?!
I have never heard of such. They can look at the check and SEE who it’s from! Unless you’re someone they don’t trust or you’ve been overdrafting your account and bouncing checks all over the place
Yes to all of these! And a few more. I REALLY wish people understood check cashing guidelines. Please don’t bring me a check made payable to some random person & claim they gave it to you! 🙄 also, if you are not a customer of our bank, please don’t be upset when we won’t cash your random foreign check. 😩 and LASTLY, I am so done with the customers who are genuinely paranoid that the bank or teller is taking their money because they didn’t balance their checkbook correctly!
I absolutely respect this. I am struggling with asking the teller out. Anytime we see eachother we glow red and everyone laughs at us. There’s a chemistry but I don’t want to disrespect the decorum much less her space.
I was a teller for 4 years, I'm in an office now though. Maybe it's different because I'm at a credit union, but our holds are COMPLETELY at the discretion of the teller. When I was putting a hold I could put however many days I wanted, although the shortest hold we are allowed to do is 4 days.
Interesting, I've just started watching your vids and I love them. Very informative, I wish more people knew about some of the things you mention before coming in the branch hahah
“I know I need to have my ID but I need to update my address, withdraw 5K cash in hundreds only, and get my recent transactions, and I don’t have my ID”
Great video! Very informative and good to know. Yes I sure would like to see more of this type of content. Just advice or like why the tellers job is a certain way. Which is following instructions as they've been trained. You know what I'm saying? I'm from small town in Texas the bank employees are super nice and well mannered. Hope you're having a great day! ☺️ Pretty Hot here where I live. In the 100's + ! 😎 Lol!
That’s a loaded question & I guess that will depend on you. There’s a reason people in this position make $16ish an hour. You will not be just counting money.
I worked at the bank for 3 & half years. Quit and now thinking to go back. I aslo want to open my UA-cam channel. I wasn't sure we were allowed to make videos like this. But I like your content & you have gained a subscriber.
this is so similar to what id say to people when I was a waitress! obviously different jobs haha but a lot of the same messages- like no I'm not flirting, no its not my fault if it takes awhile, a brainfart is normal haha
It really sucks working as a teller for 5 years and never ever, ever getting promoted....even after going above and beyond to make sure you are interviewing great. Especially when you just give up because you keep finding out that the all of the managers keep hiring one of their own at their own branch and only interview you bc it is mandatory for them to interview all applicants. It can feel really hopeless, when you do all you can to be great in your role and you know you’re more then ready to move up to at least a banker position and all the positions are being given based off of favoritism and/or only to bilingual people.
I'm male, and yes I know that the female tellers in my local branch doesn't flirt. BUT, I'm the one who's flirting and they like it.. Next thing I know, she's also likes to have a short conversation with me.. And I don't mind if she is secretly upsell as long as her upsell meets my need.
Entertaining? Yes, you are! My husband loves to go down to the bank and "Flirt" with the girls they all love him. I call it going to see his girlfriends.....lol
Patricia Paquette 😂 yes we definitely had those men too! But those are just good company to have they don’t expect to actually go out on a date with you 😂 I love 97% of my clients!
I had one gentleman yell at me for asking for his license. When he did send it in (drive-thru) he only sent in the bottom half of his ID. Idk if he snapped it in half on purpose or it was already like that
100% agree with you! On the flip side…the teller asks “how’s your day going” then cuts you off with another question like I need your account number ( indicating to me you (( the teller)) could care less about my day)..totally get that you may HAVE to ask but at least pretend for 2 seconds and listen. Then ask for my information twbg
Is it wrong to tip a bank teller? I tipped a bank teller with $50 today and she insisted why? For what! She was literally intending to give me back the money
I use to be a waitress and the stories I could tell you. Here’s one. A carnival was near to our restaurant. One of the workers came in and ordered the salad bar. He was covered from the tips of his fingers to his elbow, with black grease. It was so bad that there were little chunks of it stuck to the hairs on his arms. So, I was thinking of a way to stop him politely from going up there. It had a sneeze bar on it but he needed a body bar, so I said to him “you look exhausted, why don’t you tell me what you would like I’ll get it for you?” Mind you all the other customers were watching this. He says to me “no why do you think I ordered the salad bar? So no one is touching my food. I almost fell over. My other customers were upset 😡 to say the least and wanted the manager. They were mad at me because he was filthy and putting his arms over all that food. What a mess. It was disgusting. So so long. God Bless
Funny story...client came storming into the lobby upset that our drive up wouldn't cash her check because she refused to show her I.D. Even though we knew who she was inside, we refused to cash her check too. We didn't want to reward bad behavior. 😂
Adriana Olivia it definitely can be. When I switched to personal banker and then they ALSO needed me on the teller line i development IBS from the stress it was causing me
Melissa Freeman I could see that. I’m the only teller and I do other reports and overall it’s hard because I’m always stopping something to do something else, and I’m still expected to not make any mistakes, and just be the perfect teller but it’s sooo hard 😭 doing the work or 2 people for barely any pay lol also I feel like old men are the worst customers, also people always trying to get me to force put their checks in I’m like bro idk lol I’m just putting this through
Adriana Olivia I know girl. Although I can say when I was first starting as a teller I made over $14 and hour so I felt that was fair starting out. Maybe you can go to a different bank where they’ll pay you more AND you’ll have some help because that’s not fair to you or SAFE, as we know, for you to be the only teller.
@@MelissaFreeman I tried being a teller but it wasn't for me. Scanty training and being expected to immediately pick up on everything...am I the only one?
I always wanted to know about the license!! I never asked but always was curious which now I know! These things I can’t believe happen too! My mom always told me to wash my hands because money is gross. I never didn’t think it was that gross, and thought she was exaggerating. But now I know. Idk what I’d do for the last one I think I would go to the bathroom immediately.
Men don’t have a reputation for being stupid for no reason. It’s ridiculous hospitality and care is what you do in any service job when you are serving a customer so the fact that men think because you’re being kind that you’re into them is utterly ridiculous and stupid af.
Know your damn account number or have your account card or something else we can use to look you up (your debit/credit card or black check) it’s really annoying when you don’t know your account number or have any we can use to look you up by and then get mad when we ask for you Driver’s License. Or the second thing is when people pull up to the drive up and within less than two seconds of being there they push the help button.
I would enjoy one of these videos from the EMT perspective. (I know your hubby is one). I'm not sure if h would get in trouble or not, but it would be a good PSA. Lol
I hope you can answer my question I ve been thinking of applying to become a bank teller and though it’s obvious you need basic math something about handling money scares like messing up what do you think it is something you build up? It that makes sense lol
DirtCheapBeautiful!!! You do have to be EXTREMELY attentive to detail with working with money at the bank. Just so you’re clear on the actual job counting money is just 1/2 of the job. You’ll be fixing problems with accounts all day, answers customers questions, ordering things they needs and doing research. If all of that sounds like fun to you then you can apply and just try to be super super cautious when counting etc. if you have an outage more than a few times you will be let go.
A business day is a day if the week that the business is open so Mon-Fri. An outage means you’re missing money. Just going by all of the questions you have asked in my banking videos I would suggest taking a couple basic courses at a community college for you. You do need to be a somewhat knowledgeable:intelligent person to do such a job. Do you have a high school diploma yet?
The other day I was cussed out because a guy wanted to cash a check but didn't have his ID. He didn't have it so I asked the other tellers and none of them knew him. I thought he was going going to go though the drive thru window at me. I am so tired of people raising hell about showing their ID. 🙄
@@MelissaFreeman so imagine, I walk up to the bank and I want to deposit some cash. I give you the account details you enter the details and the amount. Off that can you see how much money I have saved up ?
My credit union needs to have a board meeting and watch this to see how a manager should be ...#RELAXEDANDDOWNTOEARTH then share this jank with allllll the members
hey mel, i recently decided to become a teller. i have no prior bankin experience, i used to be a casino dealer for 4 years. i found a lot of bank teller certification programs online but not sure which direction to go. do banks train teller on the job or u have to have experience n certification? please help, thank you so much:)
Me: “do you know tour account number?” Member: “no” Me: “do you have a debit card ?” Member: “no” Me: “license” Member “no” Ask for their name, type it in and there’s multiple people and accounts under that name . Me:” asks for birthdate” Member” ARE YOU KIDDING ME !!?!??”
M Muss lol you’re right! I had one old 60 year old man say “nice ass” when I turned around to go to the money counter 🤦🏼♀️ my coworkers had to duck down behind the counter and laugh. I started hiding in the back every time he came in
Is it possible for a credit union to tell you that you have an interview and right on the day before they tell you that they have hired someone with experience without interviewing you ?
Isaiah Felder yes that is possible! That just means they found someone bettering fitting for the job that they hit it off with immediately or they promoted within
how about having your account number.... most of the time clients complain that the transaction is taking too long. Well..... if you had your account number we wouldnt have to take the extra time to look it up . So if you want to get out of the bank fast have the dang number. Also, you want make a large withdrawal....(20,30,40k) you better call ahead. I dont know when this video was made but banks no longer keep that kind of cash on hand for one client. It needs to be ordered. AND if you do order it from a branch PLEASE have the decency to get the cash from that branch and not another one. Bank reps took the time to order for you and if you dont come and get it from where you order it from not only does it have to be reprepped and shipped back out but now you have thrown off the limits for the branch and that can lead to an audit breech.
Nobody does videos on normal sized savings tellers see? How much is a large amount to withdraw in cash? What kind of profession have large sums of money? The people that have large amounts of cash do they look like they have it? Maybe some insight on investing like real estate, stocks, car sales… other questions like when theft, counterfeit
I can’t believe I haven’t watched this video yet lol. The license one is the main problem in our branch cause the town is soooo small... omg the belching, I hate when people burp and breathe out so hard thinking it won’t freakin stink.🙄🙄
You know what grossed me out when people lick their fingers and touch money or paper. That is so freakin nasty. Who wants to touch your saliva dollar bill ewww gross
OH MY GODD YES!!! 🤢 and the fact that they were basically liking the money by touching it then licking their fingers!! Lord have mercy I can’t deal 😂 that’s a really good one!
that first one is spot on someone has slipped me their number at least 10 times in the 3 years I've been a teller, That second one I tell people I do not make the rules I just follow the rules if they have a problem I will be happy to direct them to the manager.
OMG!! I'm sorry you have to go through that sweetheart. Some clients are very rude. May be its because of Location difference. In my country usually the Bank teller are very very rude. The clients are not free to talk to the Bank teller, coz they gets angry for anything. Some teller looks at us as if we're asking their money.
Great Videos🤗 these are all true but there is 1 thing that disgusts me so much😒 When the clients spits (w/ buggers and all) to count the money just before they hand it to you🙄🤢🤮
Very informative video!! Many people need to know about this. Sure you may go ahead and make another video some other day as well. Waiting to watch it too.
I feel miserable being a teller. I literally think about clocking in the next day. Tired of dealing with people that think it’s okay to dehumanize you to the nearest atom. I could only imagine how much more f*cked this world is.
I'm officially disgusted with people 😨 Why do people think it's ok the behave like this?!!! I'm sorry for any public employee who has had to handle butt crack money or been burped in the face. What is wrong with people?! Fortunately I've never done any of the things in this video so I'm a stellar bank client🥇lol. ❤😊
I would imagine the vast majority of the customers haven’t either. I think what’s going on here is they take a few times this happened and act as if it happens every day. That’s how UA-cam works. Save your moral outage for things that matter.
Yes yes yes. Or when people just walk right up to you without you saying “i can help you”
Brooke Garza OMG YESSS!!! like never mind the 14 checks and $12,000 cash laying on my desk I’ll just through that under the desk and help you! 😂🤦🏼♀️💀

Especially when you just give up because you keep finding out that the all of the managers keep hiring one of their own at their own branch and only interview you bc it is mandatory for them to interview all applicants. It can feel really hopeless, when you do all you can to be great in your role and you know you’re more then ready to move up to at least a banker position and all the positions are being given based off of favoritism and/or only to bilingual people.
Yeah they does suck. I had a couple horrific managers while in banking. One even wrote me up for something she did so the DM wouldn’t find out.
I'm male, and yes I know that the female tellers in my local branch doesn't flirt. BUT, I'm the one who's flirting and they like it.. Next thing I know, she's also likes to have a short conversation with me.. And I don't mind if she is secretly upsell as long as her upsell meets my need.
You’re going to have to get a bit better grammar for me to understand what you’re saying
@@MelissaFreeman i'll just keep it to myself
sounds like my life everyday... 😭😭😂😂
Laura Byrd LOL!! Lies!!!
haha I don't do any of this, but dear gawddd these customers..🙄😏😩😣😭😂
Entertaining? Yes, you are! My husband loves to go down to the bank and "Flirt" with the girls they all love him. I call it going to see his girlfriends.....lol
Patricia Paquette 😂 yes we definitely had those men too! But those are just good company to have they don’t expect to actually go out on a date with you 😂 I love 97% of my clients!
You assume they love it
I had one gentleman yell at me for asking for his license. When he did send it in (drive-thru) he only sent in the bottom half of his ID. Idk if he snapped it in half on purpose or it was already like that
ARMY Yandere omg 😂😂😂 I had an old man throw his in my face one time!
I used to be a teller so I can agree lol 😂
Amen!
Yes, check holds are not my fault!!!
Melody Bennett preach!!!
100% agree with you! On the flip side…the teller asks “how’s your day going” then cuts you off with another question like I need your account number ( indicating to me you (( the teller)) could care less about my day)..totally get that you may HAVE to ask but at least pretend for 2 seconds and listen. Then ask for my information twbg
Oh wow that’s super rude. Maybe that teller was just having a hard day that day
Is it wrong to tip a bank teller? I tipped a bank teller with $50 today and she insisted why? For what! She was literally intending to give me back the money
It’s actually against policy. If we take money we will be terminated 😬 I’m sure she was very appreciative of the kind gesture though!
@@MelissaFreeman omg I have to go the bank and apologize
No! I’m sure the teller thought it a very nice gesture. It’s not common knowledge to the public so you had no way of knowing!
Bank bribery act policies typically prevents this. Even though they could probably really use the money. Not allowed.
I use to be a waitress and the stories I could tell you. Here’s one. A carnival was near to our restaurant. One of the workers came in and ordered the salad bar. He was covered from the tips of his fingers to his elbow, with black grease. It was so bad that there were little chunks of it stuck to the hairs on his arms. So, I was thinking of a way to stop him politely from going up there. It had a sneeze bar on it but he needed a body bar, so I said to him “you look exhausted, why don’t you tell me what you would like I’ll get it for you?” Mind you all the other customers were watching this. He says to me “no why do you think I ordered the salad bar? So no one is touching my food. I almost fell over. My other customers were upset 😡 to say the least and wanted the manager. They were mad at me because he was filthy and putting his arms over all that food. What a mess. It was disgusting. So so long. God Bless
Dianna Bloom eewww!! Yes i was a waitress for years before banking!
Funny story...client came storming into the lobby upset that our drive up wouldn't cash her check because she refused to show her I.D. Even though we knew who she was inside, we refused to cash her check too. We didn't want to reward bad behavior. 😂
Oh gosh
ahhh you’re so gorgeous!
Being a bank teller is one of the most stressful jobs I have ever had tbh
Adriana Olivia it definitely can be. When I switched to personal banker and then they ALSO needed me on the teller line i development IBS from the stress it was causing me
Melissa Freeman I could see that. I’m the only teller and I do other reports and overall it’s hard because I’m always stopping something to do something else, and I’m still expected to not make any mistakes, and just be the perfect teller but it’s sooo hard 😭 doing the work or 2 people for barely any pay lol also I feel like old men are the worst customers, also people always trying to get me to force put their checks in I’m like bro idk lol I’m just putting this through
Adriana Olivia I know girl. Although I can say when I was first starting as a teller I made over $14 and hour so I felt that was fair starting out. Maybe you can go to a different bank where they’ll pay you more AND you’ll have some help because that’s not fair to you or SAFE, as we know, for you to be the only teller.
Melissa Freeman bank life is just a hard life 😭
@@MelissaFreeman I tried being a teller but it wasn't for me. Scanty training and being expected to immediately pick up on everything...am I the only one?
I always wanted to know about the license!! I never asked but always was curious which now I know! These things I can’t believe happen too! My mom always told me to wash my hands because money is gross. I never didn’t think it was that gross, and thought she was exaggerating. But now I know. Idk what I’d do for the last one I think I would go to the bathroom immediately.
Bubbles yes money is sooo soo gross!!
I had a teller one hour interview two days ago. I’m waiting...
Awesome!!
Thank you for this video.
Thank you for watching!!!
Men don’t have a reputation for being stupid for no reason. It’s ridiculous hospitality and care is what you do in any service job when you are serving a customer so the fact that men think because you’re being kind that you’re into them is utterly ridiculous and stupid af.
And a whole AMEN to that!!! 👏🏼👏🏼
Know your damn account number or have your account card or something else we can use to look you up (your debit/credit card or black check) it’s really annoying when you don’t know your account number or have any we can use to look you up by and then get mad when we ask for you Driver’s License. Or the second thing is when people pull up to the drive up and within less than two seconds of being there they push the help button.
Brianna Hewitt LOL!!!!
I would enjoy one of these videos from the EMT perspective. (I know your hubby is one). I'm not sure if h would get in trouble or not, but it would be a good PSA. Lol
Ashley June my husband is not a video maker! Sorry!
YES great idea
Oh wow. People need to learn some manners. You should do another video like this!
Heather & Baby Lillia Plus Family working with the public is no joke girl! Never know what you’re day will be like lol
I hope you can answer my question I ve been thinking of applying to become a bank teller and though it’s obvious you need basic math something about handling money scares like messing up what do you think it is something you build up? It that makes sense lol
DirtCheapBeautiful!!! You do have to be EXTREMELY attentive to detail with working with money at the bank. Just so you’re clear on the actual job counting money is just 1/2 of the job. You’ll be fixing problems with accounts all day, answers customers questions, ordering things they needs and doing research. If all of that sounds like fun to you then you can apply and just try to be super super cautious when counting etc. if you have an outage more than a few times you will be let go.
Thank you for replying!!! Definitely helps...
A business day is a day if the week that the business is open so Mon-Fri.
An outage means you’re missing money.
Just going by all of the questions you have asked in my banking videos I would suggest taking a couple basic courses at a community college for you. You do need to be a somewhat knowledgeable:intelligent person to do such a job. Do you have a high school diploma yet?
The other day I was cussed out because a guy wanted to cash a check but didn't have his ID. He didn't have it so I asked the other tellers and none of them knew him. I thought he was going going to go though the drive thru window at me. I am so tired of people raising hell about showing their ID. 🙄
I’ve had that happen many times! Had one license thrown at my face by a man also
But say you walked in to make a deposit, can the tell see how much cash you have in your according without digging for that data?
Zane K ummm what?!
@@MelissaFreeman so imagine, I walk up to the bank and I want to deposit some cash. I give you the account details you enter the details and the amount. Off that can you see how much money I have saved up ?
Zane K yes! The teller has access to any and all information you have at that bank.
My credit union needs to have a board meeting and watch this to see how a manager should be ...#RELAXEDANDDOWNTOEARTH then share this jank with allllll the members
LOL!!!
Oh my God this was so interesting girl thank you for sharing LOL
hey mel, i recently decided to become a teller. i have no prior bankin experience, i used to be a casino dealer for 4 years. i found a lot of bank teller certification programs online but not sure which direction to go. do banks train teller on the job or u have to have experience n certification? please help, thank you so much:)
No certification necessary! They will train you!
Me: “do you know tour account number?”
Member: “no”
Me: “do you have a debit card ?”
Member: “no”
Me: “license”
Member “no”
Ask for their name, type it in and there’s multiple people and accounts under that name .
Me:” asks for birthdate”
Member” ARE YOU KIDDING ME !!?!??”
lol!!! So true
Great video 😍😍😍
You are very pleasant and your accent is adorable. I see why dudes would think ur flirting lol
cabexadecuete lmao BYE!
M Muss I wish they did.
M Muss no we’re not allowed to say much. We can say, I’m not interested and things like that but that literally doesn’t stop them!
M Muss lol you’re right! I had one old 60 year old man say “nice ass” when I turned around to go to the money counter 🤦🏼♀️ my coworkers had to duck down behind the counter and laugh. I started hiding in the back every time he came in
Is it possible for a credit union to tell you that you have an interview and right on the day before they tell you that they have hired someone with experience without interviewing you ?
Isaiah Felder yes that is possible! That just means they found someone bettering fitting for the job that they hit it off with immediately or they promoted within
@@MelissaFreeman So Just keep applying to a different branches of banks and what is the difference between a trainer and a teller
Isaiah Felder yes!
how about having your account number.... most of the time clients complain that the transaction is taking too long. Well..... if you had your account number we wouldnt have to take the extra time to look it up . So if you want to get out of the bank fast have the dang number. Also, you want make a large withdrawal....(20,30,40k) you better call ahead. I dont know when this video was made but banks no longer keep that kind of cash on hand for one client. It needs to be ordered. AND if you do order it from a branch PLEASE have the decency to get the cash from that branch and not another one. Bank reps took the time to order for you and if you dont come and get it from where you order it from not only does it have to be reprepped and shipped back out but now you have thrown off the limits for the branch and that can lead to an audit breech.
Period 👏🏼
Nobody does videos on normal sized savings tellers see? How much is a large amount to withdraw in cash? What kind of profession have large sums of money? The people that have large amounts of cash do they look like they have it? Maybe some insight on investing like real estate, stocks, car sales… other questions like when theft, counterfeit
Huh?
Love this! So true!!!!!! I just started as a teller :))))))
lol just be as patient as possible!!
I can’t believe I haven’t watched this video yet lol. The license one is the main problem in our branch cause the town is soooo small... omg the belching, I hate when people burp and breathe out so hard thinking it won’t freakin stink.🙄🙄
Stripper money. I have unfortunately had to handle it. Thankfully we wear gloves because of Covid now 😂
lol yep!!
The bank works for me
Ok period
You know what grossed me out when people lick their fingers and touch money or paper. That is so freakin nasty. Who wants to touch your saliva dollar bill ewww gross
OH MY GODD YES!!! 🤢 and the fact that they were basically liking the money by touching it then licking their fingers!! Lord have mercy I can’t deal 😂 that’s a really good one!
I love your charisma! 👋 hello from arkansas!
marialovesmusicalot thank you!! I hope y’all are having cooler weather there then we are!!!
that first one is spot on someone has slipped me their number at least 10 times in the 3 years I've been a teller, That second one I tell people I do not make the rules I just follow the rules if they have a problem I will be happy to direct them to the manager.
Call me Poetic yep! And then the manager says the same exact thing #win ! Lol
I just smile and ask if they are ready LOL @@MelissaFreeman
Omg Melissa literally every one of these is sooooo true #preachsister #facts
Carlo St. James lol 🙌🏼
So true.
Yes!!
What is y’all starting pay to be a teller
There’s no answer for this. Too many factors involved.
Very True!!!!!!
Love you accent. You should were rubber gloves. You are a riot!
O lord that list but about the close customers burping and farting. I’m thinking of holstering Lysol disinfectant spray on the ready.
Lol
*HAHAHA SO TRUE* 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol! Sorry that you can relate 😂 bless you if your work with the public also. You’re a superhero 🤣
*We sure are* 💋
OMG!! I'm sorry you have to go through that sweetheart. Some clients are very rude. May be its because of Location difference. In my country usually the Bank teller are very very rude. The clients are not free to talk to the Bank teller, coz they gets angry for anything. Some teller looks at us as if we're asking their money.
Tovikali Chishi oh no 😨 that’s terrible. We have the friendliest tellers in the south
Melissa Freeman!! Yes, its damn terrible. Its quite opposite for us 😢
Melissa Freeman don't worry about them people
Asks for members debit card to look them up because they didn’t know their account # and they called corporate to complain about me lol
Great Videos🤗 these are all true but there is 1 thing that disgusts me so much😒 When the clients spits (w/ buggers and all) to count the money just before they hand it to you🙄🤢🤮
Johanna de la Roca ahhh omg BARFFF 😂😂 I cannot!
Very informative video!! Many people need to know about this. Sure you may go ahead and make another video some other day as well. Waiting to watch it too.
Gosh this is me everyday, I’m a teller and really want to quit 😩
Shanay Dee how long have your been a teller?
For 3 years and I’m ready for something new
Shanay Dee maybe you can move into a different position. If not, with banking experience you can get several other types of jobs!!
I feel miserable being a teller. I literally think about clocking in the next day. Tired of dealing with people that think it’s okay to dehumanize you to the nearest atom. I could only imagine how much more f*cked this world is.
It’s not for everyone that’s for sure. I actually left banking all together! I’m a librarian now and love it
Update, I no longer work there and now I am finally happy😭😭😭😭 after almost 2 long years
@ 7:46
I'm done 🤣😂🤣
Okay but the one that got her mouth spit in is okay and thriving 😂😂😂
I'm officially disgusted with people 😨 Why do people think it's ok the behave like this?!!! I'm sorry for any public employee who has had to handle butt crack money or been burped in the face. What is wrong with people?! Fortunately I've never done any of the things in this video so I'm a stellar bank client🥇lol. ❤😊
Rene Daniels lol!! Girl it takes all kinds!!
I would imagine the vast majority of the customers haven’t either. I think what’s going on here is they take a few times this happened and act as if it happens every day. That’s how UA-cam works.
Save your moral outage for things that matter.
It was something that happens everyday, unfortunately!
@@MelissaFreeman people farted at you everyday?
you made me laugh so hard
music central 1 look I’m so glad!!
Melissa, have you considered doing standup comedy?
David Schmiedeberg only for my friends. I’m way too inappropriate for the world 💀
My bank has bullet proof glass between us and the teller
Yeah the banks in smaller towns don’t usually have the BR glass. It would be great for everyone to have though!
Melissa Freeman BOA in Conroe Tx does .They got tied of being robbed
If a tell did not ask for my ID I would close that account.
#2 is aptly named.
