He filled out the “Do not write in this area” of some form. Big and bigger dummy.

Did he write “I have a gub” on the other side?

$12,000 shouldn’t be a stretch for any reasonable bank branch. However, you’re correct that you normally have to pre-order cash in large amounts (e.g., $50k), as branches normally place regular cash orders to satisfy commercial customers and having someone pop up and ask for an unexpected $50k can be difficult to handle otherwise.

Patriot act and other bills passed allow this nonsense.

He’s got an estimated net worth of $24 mil. Besides Black Panther, he directed Creed, which is part of the Rocky franchise.

Oh God I am so embarrassed. I thought he was a director of the Black Panther party not a director of the movie Black Panther. I think I should have known that. I blame whoever wrote the story for emphasizing fact that the teller was pregnant which is a trivial detail.

I’m thinking he didn’t want others seeing him get that much cash.

Maybe he should have used the drive thru.

I honestly think the teller couldn’t read the cursive. Cursive stops young people in their tracks these days; hieroglyphics.

So, $8.00/gas————? Or maybe he was making the withdrawal to pay for gas? Thanks for the info.

This wouldn’t have happened in Feb (Jan date), the indoor mask mandate for Atlanta was lifted in Feb.

I am in the Atlanta metro area just outside of the I-285 beltway and I haven't worn a mask anywhere in any store or business for a year now, except for two times at my WellStar doctor visits and once getting my haircut at Great Clips (their masks were very cheaply made).

For honorable mention: I got a shingles vaccine at the Walmart Pharmacy.   The Pharmacist walked out from the counter area and asked if I would wear a mask as they require?   She said she could give me one if I didn't have one with me.   I told her I would wear one if she would provide it.   I put it on and she gave me the shot.   I thanked her and took the mask off to continue my shopping.

Farcical masking is a thing to behold.

That's exactly what he did.

This should have been all he needed and his request not to cause notice from anyone in the bank was not unreasonable at all.

If you're withdrawing 12K in Atlanta, and you are a rich director, why wouldn't you go straight to the manager and make the ask? You can sit in her office and have a free Keurig while she hops for you, and you accomplish your discretion, while you connect with the manager for future bidness.

A hasty note to a dumbass teller, and no mention of providing id? Guilty.

He got in trouble for writing in the “Do not write in this area” space.

That’s why they called the cops - he’s a rabble rouser!
