The Bank Teller

Post by Bob Pacey » Fri Apr 01, 2011 7:31 am

Used to have one fella at the local bank who we called "Steam and Dry"
He spent a lot of time trying to get the crinkles out of the cornor of the notes.


THE BANK TELLER

I keep the notes so tidy
All the bundles are so neat.
I straighten all the edges
Oh it's such a tiring feat

The notes are stacked so neatly
All the heads are up the same.
More people join the queue so long
But I'm really not to blame.

The coins I keep in little bags
I count each one to be sure.
You only get what you deserve
And not one red cent more

I'm a trained professional
I really know my stuff.
So you really have to wait your turn
Now don't get in a huff !

There used to be six of us here
Five ladies and a fella.
Now I'm on my own all day
With one automatic teller.

Make sure you've filled your forms out
I know three copies are a pain.
But it must be all completed right
Or it's back you go again.

I'd like to spend some time with you
Oh please don't start to cry !
The queue is out the door now
So I really have to fly.

The banks must have their profits
But one day they just might see
That the money that their using
Still belongs to you and me.

I like that one Bob :lol:

Don't be too hard on the accountancy fellas, they're required to be like that. ;)

G'day Bob, (and Neville)

Do you remember when the notes were paper? I knew a lady who used to iron hers if they got too scrunched up. She'd be in strife now if she tried that!
