Closing Thoughts
We know the bigger world of issues is entering the third year affecting us at our ‘local level’. The start of 2022 has had some unanticipated waves rolling in over the customer service ocean we all live in.
To keep our teams responsibly healthy so they can safely interact with all visiting customers, we’ve had to make decisions we’d rather not such as intermittent branch closures or drive thru only and we want to explain why.
There are security and safety requirements for proactive bank staffing while in ongoing Pandemic mode nationally. So, it’s really a blend of things but the biggest factor that made doors lock is the quick spreading virus we’ve all been experiencing heavier than that last time after the other time it waved through.
It’s like you’re playing chess with an unknown opponent called a virus.
Our awesome people need our customers cheering us on, trusting that we want to make every transaction accurate and enjoyable for you.
We’re expecting the next month or so to have disappointments in unanticipated lobby closures – yet we ask what can we do to help avoid what we know we don’t want –
Keeping you informed is the key.
We are focused on communicating when a branch has this common wave of Covid or general illness that factors in to regular life plans of our team – like maternity celebrations, planned vacations and simply growing so fast – we are always looking Diamonds in the rough. Ready to join us in our mission to inspire, protect and celebrate that which makes our communities thrive.
Our customers need us and more people like us to continue to serve at our level of memorable experience.
If you’d like to see what positions are open and all the cool benefits we offer the right people who believe in our diamonds. Please share with people we should meet.
We are so grateful for our customers and our team!! We will be open and stellar as our health returns!
