Can you imagine?!
Even a security personnel at the bank wants you to tip him out for helping you out at the ATM.

A Tale.

Sometime last week, my ATM card got stuck in the machine and I couldn't retrieve it. I needed to withdraw, so I had to utilize cardless transaction means, at the ATM, to get cash. The charge was N50.

Some days ago, someone transfered some money to me, so I went to bank again to withdraw. Since I had no debit card, I was thinking of cardless withdrawal. Then noticed that I could use fingerprint method to avoid unnecessary charge, as I had tried it before...

but the machine didn't detect my fingerprint. So, I called the security man around for help. I tried it in his presence about three time until the machine finally detect my fingerprint.

I thanked the security man and was about to leave. Could you believe that the man was expecting me to tip him off for standing beside me when I was making the transaction? Seriously?!

I had no money on me before I made the transaction. He didn't even know what I planned to use the money for. Just the idea that he told me to keep trying till it worked and it's my account made him expect a tip.

I just smiled. "Thank you. I'll probably see you another time," I said.

Pause.
