The Old Lady Handed Her Bank

An old lady went to a bank intending to withdraw money…

The old lady handed her bank card to a bank teller and said,

“I would like to withdraw $500.” The female teller told

her, “For withdrawals less than $5,000, please use the

ATM.” The old lady then asked, “Why?” The teller

irritably told her, “These are rules. Please leave if

there is no other matter. There is a queue behind you.”

She then returned the card to the old lady. The old lady

remained silent. But she returned the card to the teller and

said, “Please help me withdraw all the money I have.”

The teller was astonished when she checked the account

balance. She nodded her head, leaned down and said to the

old lady, “My apologies Granny, you have $3.5 million in

your account and our bank does not have so much cash

currently. Could you make an appointment and come again

tomorrow?” The old lady then asked, “How much am I able

to withdraw now?” The teller told her, “Any amount up to

$300,000” The old lady then told the teller that she

wanted to withdraw $300,000 from her account. The teller did

so quickly and handed it to the old lady respectfully. The

old lady kept $500 in her bag and asked the teller to

deposit the balance of $299,500 back into her account. The

moral of this tale… Don’t be difficult with old people,

they spent a lifetime learning the skills…
