The bank was not the place to give out free money.
Too bad she didn’t think first.
One never wants to give the impression that if your story is sad enough, you can go to this teller at this bank and
get some money. Keep acts of charity completely separated from the bank.

That is what you got from the article?

She went out of her way to give drive to someone and hand him $20 of her own money.

It was a random act of kindness.

She was fired for putting herself in danger by meeting the customer in person, because that is probably some legal liability. She had permission from her supervisor too

It was HER money, not the bank’s. She did nothing wrong helping someone in need.

I’m proud of her for doing the right thing. I have nothing but contempt for the management at US Bank.

They deserve everything coming to them - and more.

Decent people are hard to find in this world and this brave woman has earned my esteem.

The bank was withholding HIS money and she gave him HER OWN money.

Her interaction with the customer was at a gas station 14 miles from the bank.

Totally agree.

Same reason you don’t feed stray cats.

Bank put a hold on his paycheck. No bank manager was there on Xmas Eve to lift the hold which is what she told him to try and do. His boss was ready to verify his employment.

Her supervisor gave him permission to leave to give him 20.00.

She was fired for having financial interaction with a customer. The supervisor was also fired.
