Bank Hours
- Share via
It is hard to believe and almost impossible to understand some of the decisions made by our country’s leading industries.
Coca-Cola changing its formula!
Food markets extending their operating hours to 24 hours a day!
And now the banks opening on Saturdays!
None of these decisions made any sense. Coke realized its error and went back to the original formula. Some of the markets are returning to their former hours but the banks have to learn the hard way. After more than 50 years of getting their customers accustomed to the five short days each week, the banks have to change!
This bank decision is enough to make a depositor wonder just how safe his money is in a concern that makes decisions as shortsighted as something like this. More hours mean more overhead and just another day to be vulnerable to holdups!
