long long long never ending line...

things that make you go...hmmm...

guess i had one of those moments yesterday...well...maybe not so much a hmmm....moment as much as a...that makes no sense...moment...

so...it was one of those rare occasions where i actually had to go inside the bank vs the good ole atm machine...i have to say...it is quite fascinating the goings on inside the bank...keeps me entertained while standing in that long long long never ending line...

so what was it that captivated my attention yesterday? glad you asked!

it actually struck me as odd...here we were...me and all the other poor folk standing in the long long long never ending line...and we all had full view of the pretty teller stations...i counted...there were 12...12 teller stations...and only 2 were open...and then there is the long long long never ending line...

does that make sense? the thing that was more crazy...was all the bank employees...just standing...standing...and periodically saying "we will be right with you" i guess it wouldn't have been so annoying if these said people were diligently working on something...anything...but they were just standing...not with customers...not on the phone...not at a desk...just standing...looking at the long long long never ending line...i counted 6 of these employees...

huh??

it is interesting to watch people react...the first reaction when they walk into the inside of the bank...and see the long long long never ending line...the second reaction...when the long long long never ending line is not moving...the third reaction...when they realize there are only 2 teller stations open...the fourth reaction...when the 6 employees standing around doing absolutely nothing...keep telling the people in the long long long never ending line that "we will be right with you"

need i go on? there are reasons i do not go into the inside of a bank...i don't know if the lovely 12 teller stations are for looks...just the illusion of "we are here to serve" or what...but...i think that the people in the long long long never ending line would have appreciated the 6 employees standing around doing nothing...to open up 6 empty teller stations...

just a thought...
