Bank Tellers

Recently posted my bank heist stories. https://forums.collectors.com/discussion/1017836/incredible-bank-heist/p1?new=1
So I dropped off a box of chocolate truffles for the tellers there. They now call me by my first name when I walk in. Are there some other things I can do like leave my phone number or certain days that are better. What are some of your strategies. **You **might get a box of chocolates...

    I have been considering flowers on certain holidays or holiday themed munchie baskets.... Mostly, good interpersonal skills will pay off....but the candy/flowers will certainly help. Cheers, RickO

    I just try to be nice and a little discrete. I did give one some candy one "Holiday Season".

    The problem is, when I tell them about my hobby they tell me about the great finds they've made at the bank. :/

    I bought an old $5 bill with rubber stamped political messages on eBay several years ago The teller who sold it to me still sets aside similar notes and I hear from her every year or two when she has enough to sell me (at close to face value).

    Yeah just be nice, remember their names and treat them like real human beings.
    Many folks who deal with the public don't receive good treatment and they will remember you for that if nothing else.
    It also helps if you are charming, witty, and good-looking, but I think I have the trifecta on that combo. :D
