<p>[QUOTE="TOLS196024, post: 80082, member: 3884"]Perhaps I can explain my point better with an analogy Lawdog. If you're anything like me, you know what kind of beer you have in the fridge. If a buddy comes over and asks if you have a Bud, and you usually only drink Miller, would you go to the fridge to check and see if a 6 pack of Bud ramdomly appeared? However, what if your significant other had bought some the night before and brought one out to your friend? Thats the same kind of situation. Tellers know pretty well what they do and don't have. Will they be wrong on occasion? Of course, but who doesn't make a mistake at work every now and then? </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Don't get emotionally blinded b/c someone else experienced crappy/sub par service at the banks in their area....unless you personally work at them and were part of the exchange quoted.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p><p>Also, I wouldn't consider this to be sub par service. Rather, it was a simple mistake. From the way the exchange was presented it doesn't seem that the teller was rude, and when she realized that she was incorrect, she corrected the mistake. </p><p><br /></p><p>I just think that we coin collectors need to remember that our requests are strange to people at the bank who just think money is money. If you get to know the people at your local bank, more likely than not, they will try to help you out by setting things aside for you. BTW, sorry if I offended anyone. I'm just trying to explain how things are viewed from the other side of the teller line. Best of luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
