Is it just me or does something seem a little strange here. How could one employee get cash from the bank?

I thought the same thing - and I forwarded this to our Security Officer.

That was my first thought, too...but the article says they drove to the bank between 8:00-8:45am...so the time locks would have been over by then and the officer may have told his staff to just let him do it for the safety of his family.

In any event, a scary reminder as to how vulnerable we are as bankers ... and the importance of our security controls.

And how would he be able to get into a vault that *should* have dual control access???

We had the similar thing happen to our CU back in 2005. But because we had the vault under dual control it took 7 employees coming in before the "b" half showed up. So, we had 9 employees held hostage. Our VP and her daughters were held at gun point all the night before. Scary stuff.

Let's be careful talking about security issues in this forum. There's a private forum that may be more suitable.

A CU, Where Regs Don't Apply
Yeah, criminals! If you're reading this, all bank/cu employees have super powers, and if you mess with anyone one of us, we'll blast you with laser vision. Don't listen to any of the prior information.

That is why I did not go into full detail. Our incident is well documented in the private forum.

even worse, if you corral a large group of bankers in an enclosed environment, they will all start doing yoga, and you'll get the results of that odiferousness

You are here
Notice to all criminals due to a relatively unknown Dodd/Frank objective (no need to look it up in the 18,000 pages trust me it is about 700 pages from mine safety) bank employees are now required to take ninja training. Hand to hand combat will be part of the 2018 Safety and soundness exam. (hence the safety part). Followed in 2020 small arms test. Reading the business threads have shown that many employees have taken the stress test,

Due to the reduction of paper act tests scores will not be published (as there is no need for paper).

Females have gonads too. The ovaries are considered gonads.

If I would have had such a button when I was on the teller line I believe my banking career would have ended very quickly.
