…. That’s why I am Beloved.
I'm wondering how the shareholders of the bank like the idea. I guess we'll find out after the next shareholder meeting.
Really? I’d pick convenience to me over a teller’s pronouns anyday…free bonus chuckle depending on the teller’s choice.
do you have a problem with staff having the option to have their preferred pronouns under their name, ogg? if so, why? it's an option for the staff, no-one's being forced to use it and i personally have been in earshot of plenty of people who've muttered not very discreet asides about 'is that a boy or a girl?'. This is a simple method of clearing up a problem.
if they do, didn't you know about it before when you were considering changing to Halifax???
What choice have I? All UK financial institutions treat their staff like shit. When my branch closes, the local staff 'will keep their jobs' but have to pay to travel to work at the nearest open branches - effectively a pay cut.
ok, i get that... so, is it a case, for you, of a final straw... as if they're insulting their staff? only i see it as something quite different... a small step giving their staff an option if they choose to use it
It isn't insulting. It is a pointless gesture compared to the pay and conditions they give their staff as opposed to their Chief Executive. One of my uncles used to be a chief executive for a similar organisation. He was never paid more than 10% (including bonuses) above the next most important person and never as much as twice the pay of counter staff.ok, i get that... so, is it a case, for you, of a final straw... as if they're insulting their staff? only i see it as something quite different... a small step giving their staff an option if they choose to use it
i think we can both agree on their wages... for virtually all banks, especially given how the majority of personal banking is now done online so no need (according to banks) for them to have to shoulder the expense of bricks'n'mortar buildings/high street taxes and suchlike. There will always be customers who prefer to do their banking in person, but times change and things change and the world moves on.
Damn, who knew Ogg was a full on all out BB?
that's overstating things, j, but it's true a lot of older people have problems with changes they find pointless (for various reasons) but younger generations see as current and pertinent to their everyday lives. the world moves on, leaves us all behind... one by one.
