ok i have deffinetly never done this before..ok..I am a college student and was hired at boa August 2009. Since the first week at boa I had an unconfortable occasion when the assistant manager said that she couldnt find my name in the system...Honestly I did not know what system she was talking about because i've never had an issue with that. No employer has ever said that they couldnt find me in the system..A couple of days later the assistant manager in front of all the other tellers asks me if my name is my real name? You know if she really had to ask why couldn't she ask in private. I explained to her that in my culture we have our fathers and mothers last name, but that in this country I've always gone by my first and last name. Like i said i have never had an issue with that. So since the beggining I have not really been to fond of that assistant manager. The lady is just plain rude all the time.
I don't even know where to start. On Nov 25th the day before thanksgiving is when the issue ocurred. I needed large bills so I asked the teller manager for them. She said she didn't have money to give me (she handles the vault) so she "borrowed" 4thousand from another teller. This teller was working in the drive thru that day while i was in the lobby. Well she handed the money to me. As the day went on people made deposits so i had cash. At 230 pm before i balanced to go home my manager asked me to give the teller the money back. I told her that i thought he had sold it to me. She anwered, "no he let you borrow it." So i gave him back the 4 grand but when i balanced i came out 4300 dollars SHORT. My manager helped me recount and look for a mistake but she did not find anything wrong.
To me nothing made sense. How could i be short the amount that i borrowed from the other teller. SOMETHING IS WRONG!!! I went home and I honestly thought they would find it and everything would be ok. So since this happened on weds., thurs we were off for thanksgiving, and friday i came in to work but they had no news of the money. I had no idea how to react I had never worked in a bank before this. Saturday and Sunday the bank was closed then monday before I left the teller manager asked me to NOT come in the next day (tuesday) because corporate security was goiing to investigate but that they were going to pay me the day anyways. So tuesday i was off and wednesday mys my day off so i did not come back until thursday Dec 3rd 2009. That day they said that corporate security did not want me to handle any more transactions until further notice so they had me lobby leading (greeting ppl ect no cash handling). Thi was very hard on me. I felt that something was very wrong and i began to have an odd feeling like when you feel lied to.
This went on until wednesday Dec 8th I belive. Corporate security or preety much KEVIN BEASLY came in to interview me. That day they had given me off so I came in just for the interview. I'm thinking they did not want me there when he arrived.
Theres a lot more to this but to sum it up in the interview Kevin Beasly said that he had no idea what couldve happened to the money. So i asked him if they had checked the camera and his response was "No we haven't checked the cameras, I can check them but i don't promise you anything because when we check those cameras we can only see the back of the tellers head" OH MY LORD when he said that i knew this people were screwing with me. There is no way that he can say this to me. IF THE ONLY THING THAT THEY CAN SEE IS THE BACK IF THE TELLERS HEADS THE CAMERAS WOULD NOT BE THERE IN THE FIRST PLACE. Bull crap!!!! Dec 10th, 2009 they terminated me. The Bank manager (oh and of course the assistant manager was watching with the biggest smile) said that wether the money is found or not that they had to terminate me because of the amount. What I told her was that non of this made sense its hard to believe that this much money is lost and that they can not come up with an answer. I told her I felt like they did not do enough. She responded that i can contact Kevin Beasly and ask but that guy had done nothign so far. I called him and he never answered the phone finally he left me a voice message saying that he has not found anything and to please call him if i remember anything because he insinuates that i took the money. In the end I don't know what this people really did. Maybe they took the money and used to me declare a loss. Who knows? I don't know if I should get a lawyer. The worst part is that now there is a termination from bank of america in my record. This also has really affected me. I a very sad about all of this. I have a hard time concentrating because I am constantly trying to figure out what could've happened. It's very depressing. I just want closure. I want an answer to what happened with that money. I want my peace back. If someone can help me. Idk..
