Bank of America

This morning, Friday, December 6, I entered the Laurel-Magnolia Financial Center branch at 11:55 AM to make a deposit of coin. I was informed in the lobby that due to sick calls there was only one teller available and he would be taking his lunch until 12:30, so there would be no teller service available until then. I was surprised, to say the least. Although I seldom need to enter and deal with tellers, there is generally a substantial lineup. So, essentially the bank was virtually closed in the middle of the day. I was not able to wait, so will return at another time, probably not for several days. I understand the difficulties of staffing, but this seems an odd way to run a bank, especially one designated as a Financial Center.
