Hey, Im broke till tomorrow, it's my last three bucks, im going out for a beer with my friends tonight. Is it really THAT big a deal?

It really rubbed me the wrong way that this girl looked at me like I was a 65 year old convicted child molester because of my withdrawal. It was also kind of embarassing, but atms don't cover that request.

Screw her, I've been there. Once I took a bag of change to the bank to deposit it because it was seriously my last $10 and the woman laughed and said I had to put the coins in rolls first. I could have smacked her. It's none of their business why you're doing what you are doing with your account and they really should just do their job and shut up, or in your case not look at you funny.

The bank teller was wrong to look at you that way. She was probably surprised by the amount of the withdrawal but still, she shouldn't have made you feel uncomfortable & embarrased. I'm the type who would have asked her if there was a problem with you withdrawing such a small amount. If she said no, then I would say, I wondered, because of the look on your face.

To answer the question of "why?", I'd have to say her response to you was because of her total inability to relate to your situation. She must be a sheltered, well provided for girl who can't imagine for a second having only $3 in the world at any given time. She looked at you like she was looking at an alien -- looking at someone she couldn't figure out at all. She was completely in the wrong. Most people have been in a hand-to-mouth situation in their lives before. Just because she hasn't (maybe) doesn't give her the right to project her horrified confusion on to you, THE BANK CUSTOMER. You could go to the manager and let him/her know that they have a serious public relations problem with their little miss princess. They'd come down on her no doubt. She isn't there to judge. Your situation isn't hers to imagine based on your bank balance. It's almost an invasion of privacy. Sorry that happened to you.

LOL! They TRULY are not used to that kind of withdrawal!

My bank is located across from a pretty cool spot. I usually keep change in the car for parking, but this day, I only had pennies, and no cash in my wallet.

Imagine the look on HER face when I withdrew $1, all quarters please!

Your money is your money. Wether its $1 or $3 it's still your money and you're her customer. It's impolite for the Cashier to look at your differently. In any case, now that this is your last $3, guess you won't be subject to the same look again Enjoy your beer!

Hey, stuff happens, and it was probably not an everyday thing for her to get that low of a transaction, don't let it bug you, why worry about what complete strangers think or even why they think anything about it. I'm sure she will forget about it in no time.

Try to go back everyday with the same transaction until she says something rude or asks you a question. Then lodge a complaint!

It seems odd you could be "down to your last three dollars", and yet have internet access and be contemplating drinking beer!

Though that's probably what I'd do too, if I only had three bucks!

Cheers!
