The worst we had wa a bull frog came in when a customer opened the door. He waited in the vestibule for the customer to leave to open the inner door. Then he made it to the security door when an officer was just going out for lunch, so that door opened, and he hopped in and behind the teller line. No one screamed or got upset, we just took an empty wastepaper basket, scooped him up and let him out the back door, closer to the river, which is probably where he was headed in the first place!

Well...this is not nearly as exciting as the above stories, but it was kind of eyebrow raising the day one of our branch managers (married) and one of his tellers (also married) came into the main office and announced to management that they had been having an affair and fell in love. They each divorced their spouses and married each other. Of course, one of them had to leave. Unfortunately, it was the teller!

One of our branches had a skunk fall into a basement window well about six feet down. The poor skunk could not get out without assistance from animal control. The worst part is that the small area that he was confined in was where the fresh air intake for the air conditioning unit was located. Needless to say it was no longer a "fresh air" intake. The smell reached every corner of the branch. We had to have the AC unit cleaned and use industrial strength air fresheners in the office. The air fresheners made it smell like a skunk that had been soaked in lemons!

we once had someone poop in the lobby...and then take their pants off in the vestibule as they were leaving the bank. We also had someone walk up to our drivethru and urinate on the window during banking hours. HELLO!!!!

We had a BAT in our lobby one morning. No idea how he got in, or even that there were bats in this area. Our CFO captured him and took him home, since he has a bat house in his back yard. Yep, you heard me correctly.

I've been trying to convince my wife to let me get a bat house for the back yard. No luck yet.

Yes, the bats in our area LOVE mosquitos! Or at least that's what my neighbor (the Conservation Agent) told me.

That depends on who you ask.

Yep. Bats snack on mosquitos and other assorted vermin.
But the bottom line is, I just plain like bats. We see them around a bit, but I wouldn't mind seeing them around more.
