I was in a bank today, I was in the room where deposits are being made. When I arrived, the bankers were busy counting the huge cash that was being deposited by several individuals there, and it occurred to me I had a check transfer I needed to make, I now handed the banker the money I had in a nylon bag, and told him "let me go and do the transfer first, then I will come for the deposit" and he agreed, cos he knows my boss. I now went and did the transfer. when I came back, I stood in the middle of the room, I intentionally didn't want to sit down cos I'd been sitting down while I waited . It happened that there was a lady sitting right by my side, so she asked me to sit down. I couldn't hear her initially cos I had my earpiece fixed in my ears listening to the music, she asked me to come and sit down again. I was hesitant to oblige her cos I wanted to be on my own.i now sat down hesitantly. She now said I had to sit down cos I had a long wait to wait , that the money the bankers were counting was huge and besides that she would first be served. I now asked her if she came before me and she said yes, and I said ok,,,.
I now jokingly asked her "is it a guarantee that you will be served before me even if you came before me". She said "yes". I asked " what if I bribed the banker" she said "I will report the banker", and I was like "what if I know the bank manager and give him money too ?"
She now started saying "I will report this person,I will report that person, I will first be served" I didn't want to argue whether she would be served first,cos I wasn't so much in a hurry.
Remember I left the money with the banker I was familiar with,. So when he'd done attending to the customers that with huge cash, he now started counting my cash, the fact being that my cash was in front of him already. Next, the lady I had exchanged words with earlier now got extremely anoid and started taking loud and louder to extent that almost everyone in the room got involved, some of them blamed me though they didn't grab the major situation that led to the argument, while the others were like "yes if you have money in Nigeria you have the power"
Now the banks manager came down and asked the banker what was going on and the banker gave him the answer he gave him. The manager now stepped closer to me and told me to leave the room, that they had ethics, he didn't want to listen to my own view, almost immediately the banker now came and handed me the deposit slip confirming the transaction.
I said "thank you" left the room immediately. He now came to my office around 5pm after they must have closed (I told him where our office was located) he asked if my boss was around and I said "no" I asked if it was because of the earlier incident that he came , he first said yes that they later queried him. Though he later said no, that he just wanted to see my boss that they were friends.he left after a few minutes of his arrival.
After he left I started having feelings whether the incident that transpired between the woman and me earlier in the bank was causing problem.
The point of this my write up is that I don't want troubles.should I go to the bank and tell them "I'm sorry for what I said And the way I reacted"?
Advise me please

Just be careful with words and statements.

Everyone in Nigeria is already on an edge with so many issues. These days, the best thing to do is keep mute and look.

No need to apologize because you didn't cause any altercation between the bank and you unless your action is confirmed to have led to a query for the teller you deposited money with.

Your ego has almost put someone's job on the line.
A simple ' pls l came before you, l just went to effect a transfer while leaving my deposit with the teller' would had save the day.
But no, the ego in you will not allowed.

The young banker was nice to you cus of your boss but you ended up putting him into trouble.
The money wasn't event yours.

Insinuating that you bribe a bank staff to a customer who is already hurting, haba nah.

Learn how to ignor confrontations in public places or explain yourself politely if you must talk.
The deed is done.

I don't know why everyone seems to be criticizing you blindly, and I'm not about to give you a pat on the back either.
You didn't do anything wrong by suggesting the bribing scenarios, it was just something that should serve as joke and laughed about and even turned into a topic of discussion if the airhead you were talking to actually is sensible, where you messed up was you not clarifying things before you left the bank especially when the manager came back.
I'll suggest you go see the manager and explain what really happened to him and also apologize to the teller so as not to cost him his job. Have a nice day

your mind is far from being narrow and you seem experienced enough to picture the scenario.
The woman seemed overly religious, too Strict ,archaic or something of that nature. Thanks

I understand your point and I believe you initially wanted it to appear as a joke

Most times when I go to the bank to deposit money, I show the security love so I wouldn't have to wait in line. It's something everyone does, but next time avoid joking about it

But problem plenty for Naija already, make person no use you cool temper

I understand her, she just failed to detect the senselessness of the person she had conversation with. She should have been able to detect a frustrated person within few seconds of conversation. She should learn from this and go by your suggestions. Cheers

I know their type and you goofed for not detecting on time. Her first response should given you an hint of her kind of person. Anyway, lesson learnt. Try see the manager and clear yourself for the sake of the staff being queried. Enjoy

What were you aiming to achieve by not explaining the situation to the obviously cantankerous customer? A situation you would have quelled with a simple explanation escalated and caused someone a query. If you felt the lady was not deserving of your explanation, you should have chipped in when the room became rowdy and/or when the manager came in. Keeping mum in situations where you are supposed to shalaye isn't an act of maturity but cowardice.

I am telling you! Of all options he could bring to the table, why bribe, acquaintance...? The lady would have concluded that it was either of those options that played out.

Childish, I must say! Let's hope he learns from this experience.

Just this, and you put up this long episode. My brother, people are hungry these days. No time for long stories

Apologising to the manager at this point is more or less like medicine after death. Moreso, the manager might conclude that the queried staff put him up to it.

The more reason why you should have kept mum or explained things to her. I am sure you have learnt your lessons though, so no need to beat yourself up... All will be well!

What you did actually was unfair to the teller, it can raise suspicions. Banking is all about integrity and it was a careless act.
However, the manager did right to take you away so has to calm the tension.
There is nothing wrong in apologizing to them, it can result to a good PR for you.
Use better choice of words, cause it was also wrong for the teller to collect your cash for keeps when it is not your turn yet.

..

You shot ur self on the foot the moment you mentioned brining someone, banks frown at such...it's a very expensive joke.

But move on and act like nothing happened, they need you more than you need them

You talk too much and deserve whatever happens
