Original caption

Bank clients will see a teller line wrapped around the lobby, three people waiting behind them, phones ringing, and transactions stacking up… then decide this is the perfect time to trauma dump their entire life story. Somehow a simple cash withdrawal turns into a 25-minute therapy session, and they still don’t realize the teller has an entire line of clients waiting. Meanwhile, the teller is smiling, nodding, and internally begging for the next person to just say, “I’d like to make a deposit.” Banking is truly customer service, financial services, and unpaid therapy all in one shift. #bank #banker #teller #bankmemes #talesfromyourbanker
